Answer:
Yes, the shapes are similar. Note, the angles are equivalent and the sides are scales of each other satisfying the requirements for similarly.
Step-by-step explanation:
For a shape to be similar there are two conditions that must be met. (1) Must have equivalent angles (2) Sides must be related by a scalar.
In the two triangles presented, the first condition is met since each triangle has three angles, 90-53-37.
To test if the sides are scalar, each side must be related to a corresponding side of the other triangle with the same scalar.
9/6 = 3/2
12/8 = 3/2
15/10 = 3/2
Alternatively:
6/9 = 2/3
8/12 = 2/3
10/15 = 2/3
Since the relationship of the sides is the scalar 3/2 (Alternatively 2/3), then we can say the triangles meet the second condition.
Given that both conditions are satisfied, then we can say these triangles are similar.
Note, this is a "special case" right triangle commonly referred to as a 3-4-5 right triangle.
Cheers.
<em>Only y= x - 2 intercepts x-axis at 2 and y-axis at -2. Thus meaning that they intercept oppositely.</em>

<em>Well, that doesn't seem to be parallel. This is called one solution answer. Both graphs intercept at (2,0). There are no linear graphs that intercept at (2,-2) except for y = x-2 so there are no graphs with (2,-2) that are parallel to the equation y = -5x/2+5 </em>
