Part I: Create two triangles that are not similar. Label your triangles and write the corresponding similarity statement. Describe, using complete sentences, the side lengths of the two triangles you created.

Part II: Explain, using complete sentences, why these triangles are not similar.

Note: The sides of the triangles don’t need to be measured; they can be made up as long as the two triangles are not similar. Also, the triangles don’t need to be submitted, just the triangle names and side lengths.

I don't want anyone to answer it for me just help me with why they arnt similar

anonymous · Answer

Triangles ABC ~ XYZ are not similar.  AB = 7, XY = 10.  BC = 12, YZ = 13.  They do not form a ratio.

anonymous · Answer

The Angle measures are A =  90, B = 45 and C = 45.  X = 60, Y = 60 and Z = 60.  The angles do not match and their is no ratio so the triangles are not similar.

is this a good start?
