Triangle QRS is similar to triangle TUV. Using the image below, prove that parallel lines have the same slope.

OpenStudy (lexluth0r):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ y2-y1 }{ x2-x1 }\] You're going to want to use line SR and VU to prove this.

OpenStudy (lexluth0r):

ok...

OpenStudy (lexluth0r):

is it only that simple, though?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, pretty much. You don't need to prove all the lines to the triangle. Just the diagonal ones.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ rise }{ run }\] You could also use this.

OpenStudy (lexluth0r):

Thanks, then. I thought it was gonna be more complicated than that. That's why O was confused xD

OpenStudy (lexluth0r):

I*

OpenStudy (lexluth0r):

Lol.
