Question

HELP WITH 3 QUESTIONS!!!

What similarity statement can you write relating the three triangles in the diagram?

Answer 1

look at the triangles RTS and RUS

Answer 2

they are both right angled triangles
can you see any other equal angles?

Answer 3

is you can show that there is another pair of equalcorresponding angles in these 2 triangles then they are similar

Answer 4

triangle s RTS and RUS are similar because of the 2 right angles and also angle R is common to both

Answer 5

can you see why SUT is also similar to the other 2?

Answer 6

Yes, I can see.

Answer 7

OK - in the cae of triangle SUT angle S is the common angle

Answer 8

Can you help me with 2 more? @cwrw238

Answer 9

OK - I'll give you some hints on how to fo them

Answer 10

* do

Answer 11

oops - angle T was the common angle not S

Answer 12

you didn't spot my deliberate mistake!

Answer 13

Actually I did, but I didnt want to correct you.

Answer 14

oh - OK!

Answer 15

It would be A correct for the problem we did?

Answer 16

well 2 angles are given to be equal
and also there are 2 opposite angles there ( in the States I think you call them vertical angles).

Answer 17

A or B - the order of letters does not matter

Answer 18

What therom do you think it is?

Answer 19

I just noticed - the options are all the same !!

Answer 20

But only one has to be correct..

Answer 21

perhaps they require you to write the triangles so that the equal angles correspond...

Answer 22

Mhm perhaps..

Answer 23

i am sure its B
