Question

A true bank shot will create two similar right triangles. Determine the measures of the triangles you estimated using the GeoGebra applet. Are they similar?

Answer 1

Answer: The two triangles created by the bank shot are similar.

Step-by-step explanation: The measures of the triangles are as follows:

Triangle 1:

Angle A = 53.14 degrees, Angle B = 36.86 degrees, Angle C = 90 degrees

Triangle 2:

Angle A = 53.14 degrees, Angle B = 36.86 degrees, Angle C = 90 degrees

Yes, the two triangles are similar.
