SSS congruence postulate (Note the postulate) states that if two triangles and have then the two triangles are congruent. That is, if two triangles have congruent corresponding sides, then the two triangles are congruent. The converse is also true--If two triangles have corresponding sides congruent, then the two triangles are congruent.
Because this is a postulate, there is no proof for this and is thus treated as a given in many geometric proofs.
