Answer 4

I can't pull up the picture

Answer 5

one sec

Answer 6

Well I mean the definition of parallel lines is that they do not intersect at any point, ever. In order for that to happen they both need to expand at the same rate. (slope)

Answer 7

i know that!! but like how do i prove that in these two triangles i am so confused

Answer 8

Well the slope of both triangles are 1/1 or just one

Answer 9

okay...
