**Hakuna matata.. , what a wonderful phrase.. :)

...It means no worries for the rest of your days! xD

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

ok I've taken the original drawing and I'm adding something to it. I've taken the original figure and pulled it apart as shown in the attachment

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

as for triangle NMT I did this set of steps/transformations to get the orientation to line up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Look at you, this is nice!

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yeah once you get things lined up, you can see the corresponding parts and see how the triangles are similar

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so they have similar angles is what I would say, similar sides?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

no, "similar angles" is not a correct term or phrase
