Answer:

Angles A and D are congruent.

Explanation:

In similar triangles, corresponding angles are congruent. Therefore, the correct statement is: Angles A and D are congruent.

This is because, in similar triangles ABC and DEF, angle A corresponds to angle D.

Answer: B. Angles A and D are congruent


Explanation:

We know that if two triangles are similar then its corresponding angles are congruent and corresponding sides are proportional.

Hence, If ΔABC is similar to ΔDEF, then

∠A≅∠D , ∠B≅∠E and ∠C≅∠F

and
(AB)/(DE)=(BC)/(EF)=(AC)/(DF)

Hence, statement B. is true about the two triangles. "Angles A and D are congruent"
