Question

10. If possible, determine whether or not triangles LQP and LMN

Answer 1

Answer:

They are similar

Step-by-step explanation:

If two triangles are similar, the ratio of their corresponding side lengths must be equal to each other.

This means that for ∆LQP and ∆LMN to be considered similar to each other, therefore:

LM/LQ = LN/LP

LM = 100

LQ = 12

LN = 75

LP = 9

LM/LQ = 100/12 = 25/3

LN/LP = 75/9 = 25/3

LM/LQ = LN/LP = 25/3, therefore ∆LQP and ∆LMN are similar to each other because the ratio of their corresponding side lengths are the same.
