We have measures of all tree sides of the both triangles,

so we can use SSS to check if the triangles are similar.

|ED|/|AB| =5/10=1/2

|DC|/|BC| = 4/8 = 1/2

|EC|/|AC| = 6/12 = 1/2

We see that all tree pairs are in proportion, so these triangles ΔABC and ΔEDC are similar.

We have enough information to prove that ΔABC similar to ΔEDC.

We see E is a midpoint so AC:EC=2:1

So our scale factor for similarity must be 2. Let's check the other two sides

AB:ED = 10:5 = 2:1 good

BC:DC = 8:4 = 2:1 good

Each side of ABC is twice its respective side of EDC, so we've shown they're similar.

Answer: Yes

I WILL AWARD BRAINLIEST!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Dahasolnce [82]

as AB || DE then

angle BAE = angle AED

so angle AED = 70

as AD = AE then

angle AED = angle ADE = 70

now in a triangle

angle DAE + Angle ADE + angle AED = 180

angle DAE + 70 + 70 = 180

angle DAE = 180 - 140 = 40
