Answer:
yes, because they have the same angle measures.
(congruent triangles have equal angles)
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that 100% = 45 sales and 35% = X sales amount
You can create a ratio to help you solve for x
45 = 100%
x = 35 %
Which is equal to this fraction: (45/x) = (100/35)
Solving for X by cross multiplying and dividing by 100:
[(45)(35)] / 100 = X = 15.75 = 16 sales (rounded up)
You would need at least 16 sales to increase sales total by 35%
