T/F: If the sides of one triangle are lengths 2, 4 and 6 and another triangle has sides of lengths 3, 6 and 9, then the triangles are similar.

OpenStudy (aravindg):

For similar triangles, ratio of corresponding sides are equal. Are the ratios equal here?

OpenStudy (evanhelps):

^ I believe it's called SSS (side-side-side) similarity.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i believe they are!

OpenStudy (evanhelps):

Yes, since 2 to 3, 4 to 6, and 6 to 9 are proportional, the triangle is similar.
