Answer:

The triangles are similar, because the angles are congruent and the sides are proportional.

Explanation:

The first step to see if the triangles are similar is to see if the angles are the same.


The third angle in the large triangle is

30 + 65+ unknown = 180

95 + unknown = 180

Subtract 95 from each side

unknown = 180-95

unknown = 85


So the angles are the same.


Lets check the ratio of the the sides

14 10

------ = ----------

7 5

Both simplify to 2/1 so the ratio's are the same.


The triangles are similar because the angles are congruent and the sides are proportional.
