Question

Are the two triangles similar? How do you know?

Answer 1

Observe that angles hmg and jmk have a relationship given that they are opposite angles of intersecting lines. Given that relationship, you might be able to state something about the third and last set of corresponding angles.

Answer 2

So, to start, what is the relationship between hmg and jmk angles?

Answer 3

Both have an angle that measures 42 degrees and the vertical angles are the same measure

Answer 4

Good, so now that you have 2 triangles with 2 corresponding pairs of angles that are equal, what does that say about the third set of corresponding angles?

Answer 5

ok i think i got the answer i had to think

Answer 6

AAA because the 3rd set is equal.

Answer 7

yep i got AAA

Answer 8

Good job! You are right!
