Step 1

Given;


Triangle\text{ TAG \textasciitilde Triangle BAG}

Required; To find the similarity postulate or theorem that applies.

Step 2

Both triangles share one side AG

They also have a common angle;


90^o

Side AG = 10 units and ∠AGT ≅ ∠AGB.

Thus, options A and B are discarded.

Step 3

Now, as for the SAS criteria, we need two sides to be congruent and their included angles to be congruent.

But, as no other information is given, we cannot determine whether the given triangles are congruent or not.

Therefore, the answer is; Option D


cannot\text{ be determined}
