The completion of the proof that QT/PR=ST/RS shows us that:

Reason 3: AA Similarity

Similar Triangles?

Two triangles are said to be similar if the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.

The two column proof here is as follows:

Statement 1: ∠P ≅ ∠Q

Reason 1: Given

Statement 2: ∠PSR ≅ ∠PST

Reason 2: Vertical Angle Theorem

Statement 3: QT/PR = ST/RS

Reason 3: AA Similarity
