Triangle RLG Similar Triangle NCP​

Here, we want to check the similarity type in the diagram shown

If two triangles are similar, the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

The angle 67 is at the point P and G

What this mean is that any labeling we are doing should place P and G in the same position

This makes the first option incorrect

if we apply the sum of the angles in a triangle to be 180, we will find out that the angle at point R is 34

So, we have point R and point N similar

So, any labeling should be in that order

This makes the third option the ONLY correct choice
