Triangles ABC and DEF are (similar or not similar)

ΔABC and ΔDEF are similar by AAA similarity.

Solution:

Sum of the interior angles = 180°

In triangle ABC,

60° + 60° + m∠C = 180°

120° +m∠C = 180°

Subtract 120° from both sides, we get

m∠C = 60°

In triangle DEF,

60° + 60° + m∠F = 180°

120° +m∠F = 180°

Subtract 120° from both sides, we get

m∠F = 60°

Consider ΔABC and ΔDEF,

∠A ≅ ∠D

∠B ≅ ∠E

∠C ≅ ∠F

Therefore by AAA similarity ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF.

ΔABC and ΔDEF are similar triangles.

connie < felicia < stew

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4

felicia:

260 words per minute

200< 260 < 265
