Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Comparing the triangles in the given questions, the following can be deduced:
5. The scale factor = [tex]\frac{15}{10}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{8}[/tex] ≠ [tex]\frac{9}{7}[/tex]
So that;
QR is similar to UT, PR is similar to US, but PQ is NOT similar to TS.
Thus, the triangles are NOT similar.
6. Scale factor = [tex]\frac{15}{10}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9}{6}[/tex]
= 1.5
So that;
QR is similar to UT, PR is similar to US, but PQ is similar to TS.
Thus, the triangles are similar by Side-Side-Side (SSS).
7. Here, an exact scale factor can not be determined. Thus, the triangles are NOT similar.
