Answer:

a) corresponding angles of similar polygons are congruent

b) corresponding sides of similar polygons are proportional

c) a triangle is a polygon

Step-by-step explanation:

By <em>definition</em>, similar polygons have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding sides.

A triangle is a polygon, so two triangles will be similar if they have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding sides.

___

For an n-sided polygon, one only needs to show the conditions are met for n-1 angles and sides. Those will determine the measures of the final angle/side.

Are these three different questions? if so:
1: add 19 to both sides to get a = 3 +19
answer: a = 22

2: multiply both sides by 7 to get y = 10 * 7
answer: y = 70

3: divide both sides by 5 to get g = 100/5
answer: g = 20

hope this helped! good luck :)
