well when you have triangles stated like that (ABC) and (DEF) that means that the first letters are congruent a=d b=e and c=f. Does that make sense?

yes

if the triangles are similar, all angles on one triangle are congruent to the angles on the other

so my answer would be C Angles B and E are proportional ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
congruent means that they are all equal but the triangles are similar not congruent :/
