Answer:
a. m<B = 100°
b. m<L = 55°
c. Scale factor = 9/11
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Similar triangles have their three corresponding angles congruent to each other, while the ratio of their corresponding sides are proportional to each other.
Since ∆ABC ~ ∆GLJ, therefore,
<A = <G,
<B = <J
<C = <L
m<J = 100° (given)
Therefore,
m<B = m<J = 100°
m<B = 100°
b) m<A = m<G
m<A = 25° (given)
Therefore,
m<A = m<G = 25°
m<G = 25°
m<L = 180° - (m<J + m<G)
Substitute
m<L = 180° - (100° + 25°)
m<L = 55°
c) scale factor of smaller triangle to the larger = side length of smaller triangle / corresponding side length of bigger triangle
Scale factor = AB/GJ
Substitute
Scale factor = 18/22
Simplify
Scale factor = 9/11

Not sure if that’s right but I hope that helps
Answer:
C. Triangle BAC is congruent to triangle FDE by AAS
Step-by-step explanation:
BAC names the vertices in the order longest-side, shortest-side. That same order is FDE in the other triangle, eliminating choiced B and D. The triangles are not right triangles, eliminating choice A.
The only viable answer choice is C.
No specific sides are shown as being congruent, but two angles are, so we could claim congruence by ASA or AAS. Answer choice C uses the latter.
