PLEASE HELP!!!1


Determine whether the triangles are similar. If so, what is the similarity statement and the postulate or theorem used?

a) DGH DFE; SSS
b) DGH DFE; SAS
c) DGH FEG; SAS
d) The triangles are not similar

Respuesta :

We sketch two triangles, DFE and DGH, as shown below 

Side DF correspond to side DG, the scale factor is 40÷32=1.25

Side DE correspond to side DH, the scale factor is 30÷24=1.25

That leaves us with the last corresponding sides, EF and HG which would also have a scale factor 1.25

Both triangles share the same angle D

We can conclude triangle DFE and triangle DGH are similar for property SSS and SAS
