Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
If two triangles are similar, their corresponding angles would be of equal measure of degree.
8. The 3rd angle of the smaller ∆ is x = 76°, while that of the larger ∆ is y = 44°. As we can see, the corresponding angles of both ∆s are not congruent or equal to each other. Therefore they ARE NOT SIMILAR.
9. x = 43°, while y = 106°.
Both triangles have corresponding angles that are congruent to each other.
Therefore, both triangles ARE SIMILAR.
