Answer:

Option(D)

Explanation:

Given are the two triangles, that are ABC and DEF, in which AB=8ft, DE=6ft, AC=10ft and DF=7.5ft.

For the two triangles to be similar, it must satisfy the similarity condition that is:

Both the triangles must have congruent angles and the sides should be proportional. Since, two sides of the given triangles are not proportional.Moreover, ∠A=25° and ∠D=24° which are not equal and ∠C=60° and ∠F=61° which are also not equal.

Therefore, Not all the angles are congruent, thus the triangles cannot be similar.
