Answer:
a) ∆RLG ~ ∆NCP; SF: 3/2 (smaller to larger)
b) no; different angles
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The triangles will be similar if their angles are congruent. The scale factor will be the ratio of any side to its corresponding side.
The third angle in ∆RLG is 180° -79° -67° = 34°. So, the two angles 34° and 67° in ∆RLG match the corresponding angles in ∆NCP. The triangles are similar by the AA postulate.
Working clockwise around each figure, the sequence of angles from lower left is 34°, 79°, 67°. So, we can write the similarity statement by naming the vertices in the same order: ∆RLG ~ ∆NCP.
The scale factor relating the second triangle to the first is ...
NC/RL = 45/30 = 3/2
__
b) In order for the angles of one triangle to be congruent to the angles of the other triangle, at least one member of a list of two of the angles must match for the two triangles. Neither of the numbers 57°, 85° match either of the numbers 38°, 54°, so we know the two triangles have different angle measures. They cannot be similar.

How to calculate the area of a sector</h3>
A sector is said to be a part of a circle made of the arc of the circle along with its two radii.
The formula for calculating the area of a sector is expressed as;
A = r²β/2
where
r is the radius of the circle
β is the angle subtended
Since the the hour hand travel during 5 hours, the subtended angle by the sector will be;
β = 360/5
β = 72 degrees
Given the following parameters
r = 16/2
r = 8in
Substitute into the formula
A = 8²(72π)/360
A = 40.192in
Therefore the hour hand travels 40.192in in 5 hours
