Explanation:

Let's start by finding each angle on each triangle.

All angles of a triangle add up to 180.

The first triangle has 125 and 40. Adding those together get 165.

180 - 165 is 15, which is that third angle.

---

For the second triangle, 125 + 15 = 140.

180-140 = 40

Now we have all angles on both triangles.

Both have 125, 40, and 15. This makes them similar.
