Question

Which of the following theorems verifies that ABC~WXY?

Answer 1

Answer:

ABC~WXY by AA

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔABC

∠B = 90°

∠A = 27°

To Find ∠C

Angle sum property: The sum of all angles of triangle is 180°

∠A+∠B+∠C=180°

27°+90°+∠C=180°

∠C=180°-117°

∠C=63°

In ΔWXY

∠X = 90°

∠Y = 63°

We will use angle sum property

So, ∠W+∠Y+∠X=180°

90°+63°+∠W=180°

∠W=180°-(90°+63°)

∠W=27°

So, ∠A=∠W

∠B =∠X

∠C = ∠Y

So, ABC~WXY by Angle - Angle property.

Hence ABC~WXY by AA
