Answer 1

the same / equal / congruent

Answer 2

If two figures are similar, the corresponding angles are equal.

Answer 3

equal. BUt the sides aren't

Answer 4

a. enlarged
b. reduced
c. congruent
d. similar


so similar?

Answer 5

Those choices are for which question?

Answer 6

If two figures are similar, the resulting corresponding angles are always ?

Answer 7

congruent (equal).

Answer 8

okay ! thanks(:

Answer 9

In your original post of the question, you had other choices. That's why asked you for which question are those choices.

Answer 10

oh well sorry being unclear... but thanks for helping !

Answer 11

When 3 angles of one triangle are equal to three angles of another triangle, the two triangles are similar. Really, all what you need is two angles of one triangle to be rqual to two angles of another triangle for the triangles to be similar (as the remaining angles will be equal since their sum must be 180 degrees).

Answer 12

ohhhh i get it(:

Answer 13

As you can see, the sides are not equal; the corresponding sides will be in proportion. @momats

Answer 14

BC/EF = AC/DF = AB/DE

Answer 15

okay I do believe i understand.

Answer 16

Great! One other thing, if you have two triangles that their corresponding sides are in prportion, then the two triangles are similar. That's the converse of the original statement.

Answer 17

oh that makes sense thanks (:

Answer 18

Look at the two triangles...their corresponding sides are in prportion...the larger triangle has a length of 3 times the smaller triangle; so all sides are in proportion; therefore, the two triangles are similar.

Answer 19

Hence, the corresponding angles are equal in measure.

Answer 20

Done.
