Question

11. Determine whether the triangles are similar. If so, what is the similarity statement and the

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

SAS Similarity Theorem: If two sides in one triangle are proportional to two sides in another triangle and the included angle in both are congruent, then the two triangles are similar.

In this problem

∠STR is congruent with ∠QTP

Verify if the corresponding sides are proportional

$\frac{42}{42+6}=\frac{28}{28+4}$

$\frac{42}{48}=\frac{28}{32}$

$42*32=48*28$

$1,344=1,344$ ----> is true

therefore

The triangles TRS and TPQ are similar by SAS
