Postulate 14
ASA
Angle, Side, Angle

Theorem 4-3
AAS
Angle, Angle, Side
If two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
Theorem 4-4
HL
Hypotenuse Leg
If the hypotenuse and a leg of one right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
