congruency of triangles in hyperbolic and spherical geometry

99 Views Asked by At

In Euclidean geometry, we have the following congruencies of triangles: side-side-side, side-angle-side, angle-angle-side = angle-side-angle (because of the angle sum) and side-side-angle (only if the side opposite to the angle is larger than the other given side). Angle-angle-angle does never hold.

My question is this: when are triangles congruent in the hyperbolic and the spherical case and what are the conditions under which the congruencies hold?

Does anybody know a reference where all these congruencies are derived from the respective laws of sines and cosines?
