The shape of a triangle is determined up to congruence by specifying two sides and the angle between them ( SAS ), two angles and the side between them ( ASA ) or two angles and a corresponding adjacent side ( AAS ).

As with plane triangles, on a sphere two triangles sharing the same sequence of angle, side, angle ( ASA ) are necessarily congruent ( that is, they have three identical sides and three identical angles ).
