Congruence and Similarity Tests: 18 MM 18 MM M

This document provides a practice exercise on congruence and similarity tests for triangles. It contains 6 triangle diagrams labeled a-f with missing values. The first triangle is worked out as an example, with side a equal to 18 mm. The remaining triangles are answered by explaining that since the triangles are congruent, if one side or angle is given in one triangle, the matching side or angle in the other triangle must be equal.
