It is a geometry proof. Angle Side Side. I dont remember exactly how it works but I do remember what it is for. Maybe one of the math wiz's can explain further. MB
My husband said his teachers always taught him to remember it "Side Side Angle". I think mine did too. Most teachers aren't dumb enough to give you the other acronym for it.
My geometry teacher was dumb enough to teach it that way and of course we all made fun of it. What do you expect from a bunch of hs freshmen and sophomores though.
I think I remember now. It had been a whole 2 years since I had Geometry so give me a break...wait a minute...forgot that part. I just remember my teacher telling it to us with SSA, I believe. But then either he or someone else commented on the ASS part. I kind of just forgot all the geometry stuff I learned. I didn't really like it. I kind of checked the site out earlier today at school. Either it was bad timing or those sick freaks only come out at night because I didn't see too many bad things.
