Final answer:
Side FC of △FCE corresponds to side PO of △PMO.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given statement PMO∼△FCE, the symbol ∼ indicates similarity between the two triangles. The corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional. Therefore, side PO of △PMO corresponds to a side of △FCE that is in proportion with it.
Let's examine the sides of △PMO and △FCE:
- △PMO: the corresponding side of PO is PM.
- △FCE: we need to find the side that corresponds to PM.
The corresponding side in △FCE is FC since it is in proportion with PM. Therefore, side FC of △FCE corresponds to side PO of △PMO.
When two triangles are similar, it means that their corresponding sides are proportional and their corresponding angles are equal. In the notation ⋆PMO≃△FCE, the letters are arranged such that the vertices of the similar angles are listed in the same order.
Therefore, to identify which side of △FCE corresponds to side PO of △PMO, we look at the order of the letters. Here, P corresponds to F, M corresponds to C, and O corresponds to E. Thus, side PO of △PMO corresponds to side FE of △FCE.
