Question

Determine whether the triangles are similar. If so, write a similarity statement and name the postulate or the theorem you used. If not explain.

Answer 1

Answer:

Not similar

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangles are similar, they will have all congruent angles and corresponding sides that form equivalent ratios.

$\frac{12}{14} =\frac{16}{18}\\0.85 = 0.88$

When simplified, these two ratios are not equal. These triangles are not similar.
