Step-by-step explanation:
The longest side of a triangle cannot be longer than the sum of the two shorter sides. So if the 5cm and 12cm sides are the shorter sides, the third one cannot be longer than the 17cm. ... So 12cm is not longer than 5cm plus the length of the third side, and therefore the missing side cannot be shorter than 7cm.
130 because 2 is less than 5
For starters, we know that the angle measures have to be similar or the same, since similar shapes always contain the same angle measures. We can use the way that the letters of each shape line up to identify which angle correspond to each other. Angle R should be congruent to angle W, but angle P is not congruent to N, it would be congruent to M though. Now we get to the tricky part, figuring out line segment lengths. Again using the letters in each shape, we can see that TK and NM do not correspond to each other, and thus cannot be congruent or similar. But, with RP/WM, this is correctly lined up with each other. TR/EW, same with this one, and TK/EN is also the same. With this Info, we can figure out the dilation of the smaller shape, or just figure out if they are similar or not. (So pick B. And D.)
The answer is shown above
