The word "because" seems to reverse the proper roles of "if" and "then". The first paragraph seems to say that if the triangles are congruent, then so are the corresponding parts. But the word "because" appearing later appears to rely on a proposition saying that if the corresponding parts are congruent, then so are the triangles. Of course both are true, but they're separate propositions, and whoever wrote this appears not to appreciate that. Michael Hardy 02:53, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- I am the author. You have brought up valid points. Because has different algebraic connotations that if and then. I will revise the article to reflect proper terminology. --Merovingian (t) (c) (w) 05:25, Mar 22, 2005 (UTC)
