Yes - they have to be similar. Since they are using the same line as the hypotenuse, the ratio of the other two sides are in the same ratio (ie, the slope of the line), the 3 inner angles will be the same. Thus, the triangles will be similar.
<u>1/3; 2/7; 2/9</u>
Lets find least common multiple
The least common multiple is 63
1/3 --> 21/63
2/7 --> 18/63
2/9 --> 14/63
As you can see I am correct, but I found the LCM by multiplying 1/3 by 21 to get to 63 and the numerator as well
