Exploring Triangle Congruence

Use this applet to investigate different *POSSIBLE* triangle congruence postulates. Play around with the applet to investigate whether two DIFFERENT (non-congruent) triangles can be made when we fix certain lengths, or angles. Is it possible to make more than one triangle with the given congruent pieces?
SSS Case: The same three side lengths
SAS Case: Two side lengths and the included angle measure
SSA Case: Two side lengths and a corresponding non-included angle measure
ASA Case: Two angle measures and the included side length
AAS Case: Two angle measures and a corresponding non-included side length
AAA Case: Three angle measures
