Is it possible to use the ASA Congruence Theorem to prove the triangles are congruent?

Yes, it is possible to use the ASA Congruence Theorem to prove the triangles are congruent.

No, it is not possible to use the ASA Congruence Theorem to prove the triangles are congruent.

Solution

Given two triangles one side that is 4.2 and included two angles( 60.5 degrees & 73.5 degrees) are congruent. According to Angle Side Angle(ASA) congruence theorem if one side and included two angles are congruent then two triangles are congruent. Therefore, it is possible to use ASA congruence theorem to prove two triangles are congruent.
