There are several conditions where triangles can be proved similar:
AA - where two of the angles are same.
SAS - where two sides of a triangle compare to the corresponding sides in the other are in same proportion, and the angle in the middle are equal.
SSS - Where all sides in a triangle and the corresponding sides are in the same proportion.
In the case above, we can only use the method of SAS, as only two sides of the triangles are given.
<HMG = <JMK (vertically opposite angles)
HM/MK = 8/12 = 2/3
GM/MJ = 6/9 = 2/3
As the two sides of a triangle comparing to the corresponding sides in the other are in same proportion, and the angle in the middle are equal, the above triangles are similar, with the prove of SAS.
Therefore, the answer is C.yes by SAS.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
Triangles ABE and CDE are congruent by AAS.
Step-by-step explanation:
AB ≅ DC (Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.
m < AEB = m < DEC (Vertical angles).
m < ABE = m < EDC ( Alternate Interior angles).
So triangles ABE and CDE are congruent by AAS.
<em><u>Question:</u></em>
Hector has a floor plan showing his new house. On the floor plan, his bedroom is 3 inches wide and 3 1/2 inches long. The scale of the floor plan is 1/4 inch = 1 foot. What is the actual length of Hector’s room?
<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
The actual length of Hector room is 14 foot
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, On the floor plan, his bedroom is 3 inches wide and 
inches long
<em><u>The scale of floor plan is given as:</u></em>
Therefore,
To find: Actual length of floor
From given question,
Converting the mixed fraction to improper fraction,
Since, 1 inch = 4 foot
Thus actual length of Hector room is 14 foot
-8 and -9 because it is negative
It is to be noted that for this item, we more concern of the pounds of flour. The number of batches is calculated by dividing the total mass of flour used by the amount per batch. That is,
n = 86 lbs / (1 + 5/8 lbs/batch)
n = 52.92 batch
Thus, the chef makes approximately 53 batches of pasta.
