Abstract
AbstractAmong the triangle congruence axioms, the side-side-angle (SsA) axiom states that two triangles are congruent if and only if two pairs of corresponding sides and the angles opposite the longer sides are equal. The modification of the SsA axiom provides a construction with two triangle sequences . We require that the opposite angles of the equivalent shorter sides be fixed and the longer sides be equal. The locus of the intersection points of other sides of triangles is derived to be a hyperbola, and in a generalized form defined by a complete quadrilateral, it is a conic section.
