Question

fan and medal!!!!!
Triangle STU is dilated to form new triangle VWX. If angle S is congruent to angle V, what other information will prove that the two triangles are similar?

Answer 1

AA - angle-angle theorem. If two angles in one triangle are equal to two angles in another triangle, the triangles are similar.
So, if you knew angle T and angle W were equal, or angle U and angle X were equal, then the triangles would be similar by AA

Answer 2

there is another theorem (SAS) that would also work, but that would require even more information to be known

Answer 3

Does that help?

Answer 4

All the sides must be in the same ratio

Answer 5

Side ST is congruent to side VW.

Angle T is congruent to angle V.

Side US is congruent to side XV.

Angle U is congruent to angle X.

still a little confused... but got an idea.. is it A? @StudyGurl14

Answer 6

Actually, by AA, the answer would be D
Because remember, according to AA, if two corresponding angles of triangles are congruent, the triangles are similar

Answer 7

You already know that angle s is congruent to angle v, so you need another congruent angle statement to fulfill AA. But the two congruent angles have to be CORRESPONDING angles, which would be D
