Question

Identify the similarity criteria if the two triangles in the figure are similar

  1. SAS similarity criteria
  2. SSS similarity criteria
  3. AA similarity criteria
  4. Data inadequate

hintHint:

The SAS criterion for triangle similarity states that if two sides of one triangle are proportional to two sides of another triangle and their included angles are congruent, then the triangles are similar

The correct answer is: SAS similarity criteria


    angleECD= angleACB
    fraction numerator C E over denominator C B end fraction equals fraction numerator C D over denominator C A end fraction
    Here, two sides of one triangle are proportional to two sides of another triangle and their included angles are congruent, then the triangles are similar by SAS similarity criteria.
    By SAS similarity criteria, the given two triangles are similar.
