Question

In the given figure, two triangles are similar as they satisfy

  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


    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.


    In triangleBEA and  triangleCED
    fraction numerator B E over denominator A D end fraction space equals space fraction numerator A E over denominator E C end fraction (Equal Sides)
    angleBEA = angleCED  ( Vertically Opposite Angles)
    T h u s comma space triangleBEA approximately equal to triangleCED, by SAS similarity criterion.

    angle B E A equals angle C E D and fraction numerator B E over denominator E D end fraction equals fraction numerator A E over denominator E C end fraction, then by SAS similarity criteria
