EASY
IMPORTANT

Three angles of one triangle are respectively equal to the three angles of the other. Further any one side of the two triangles being equal is sufficient to prove the two triangles congruent.

MEDIUM
IMPORTANT

"Two triangles with a pair of equal angles are congruent."

Why is it necessary to have the side between the two angles be of the same length for both the triangles?
