Which statements can be concluded from the diagram and used to prove that the triangles are similar by the SAS similarity theorem?

A

Which would prove that △ABC ~ △XYZ? Check all that apply.

A, C

Read the proof. Given: AB ∥ DE Prove: △ACB ~ △DCE We are given AB ∥ DE. Because the lines are parallel and segment CB crosses both lines, we can consider segment CB a transversal of the parallel lines. Angles CED and CBA are corresponding angles of transversal CB and are therefore congruent, so ∠CED ≅ ∠CBA. We can state ∠C ≅ ∠C using the reflexive property. Therefore, △ACB ~ △DCE by the

AA similarity theorem.

Consider the two triangles. To prove that the triangles are similar by the SSS similarity theorem, it needs to be shown that

AB = 25 and HG = 15

Which best explains why all equilateral triangles are similar?

All equilateral triangles can be mapped onto each other using dilations.

Consider △RST and △RYX. If the triangles are similar, which must be true?

B

Which diagram can be used to prove △ABC ~ △DEC using similarity transformations?

B

Is triangle A'B'C' a dilation of triangle ABC? Explain.

No, it is not a dilation because the points of the image are not moved away from the center of dilation proportionally.

Triangle TVW is dilated according to the rule DO 3/4,(x,y) -> (3/4x 3/4y) to create the image triangle T'V'W', which is not shown. What are the coordinates of the endpoints of the segment T'V'?

T'(-3, 6) and V'(0, 3)

In the diagram below, m∠A = 55° and m∠E = 35°. Which best explains the relationship between triangle ACB and triangle DCE?

The triangles are similar because all pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.

Is rectangle EFGH the result of a dilation of rectangle ABCD with a center of dilation at the origin? Why or why not?

Yes, because both figures are rectangles and all rectangles are similar.

Which transformations could have occurred to map △ABC to △A"B"C"?

a dilation and a rotation

Which composition of similarity transformations maps polygon ABCD to polygon A'B'C'D'?

a dilation with a scale factor of and then a translation

Why is the information in the diagram enough to determine that △LMN ~ △PON using a rotation about point N and a dilation?

because one pair of congruent corresponding angles is sufficient to determine similar triangles

Two similar triangles are shown. Triangle MNO was dilated, then ____________, to create triangle YHQ.

rotated

Which piece of additional information can be used to prove △CEA ~ △CDB?

∠BDC and ∠AED are right angles

In the diagram, DG = 12, GF = 4, EH = 9, and HF = 3. To prove that △DFE ~ △GFH by the SAS similarity theorem, it can be stated that DF/GF = EF/HF and

∠DFE is congruent to ∠GFH.

Triangle DEF was dilated according to the rule DO1/3,(x,y) -> (1/3x, 1/3y) to create similar triangle D'E'F'. Which statements are true? Check all that apply.

∠F corresponds to ∠F'. The distance from point D' to the origin is the distance of point D to the origin. △DEF △D'E'F'
