Question

Below are statements that can be used to prove that the triangles are similar.

On a coordinate plane, right triangles A B C and Z Y X are shown.
1. StartFraction A B Over Z Y EndFraction = StartFraction B C Over Y X EndFraction = 2

2. ∠B and ∠Y are right angles.

3.?

4.?

Which two statements are missing in steps 3 and 4?

∠X ≅ ∠C
△ABC ~ △ZYX by the SAS similarity theorem.
∠B ≅ ∠Y
△ABC ~ △ZYX by the SAS similarity theorem.
StartFraction A C Over X Y EndFraction = 2
△ABC ~ △ZYX by the SSS similarity theorem.
StartFraction Z X Over A C EndFraction = 2
△ABC ~ △ZYX by the SSS similarity theorem.

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

EDGE!

Answer 2

Answer: ∠B ≅ ∠Y

△ABC ~ △ZYX by the SAS similarity theorem.

Step-by-step explanation: I just got 100% in edge when i took the test! i hope this helps you! -Lettu
