anonymous · Answer

SAS similarity

zepp · Answer

Just an additional information, if MN is parallel to OQ, triangle LMN is similar to triangle LOP by Thales' theorem.

anonymous · Answer

because the two sides are proportional, and the included angle is congruent, by SAS, they're similar

anonymous · Answer

yes thank you
