Answer:

A. The triangles are not similar to each other.

Explanation:

[] A triangle's angles all add up to 180°

-> For triangle ABC the angles are 80°, 40°, and unknown

-> For triangle DEF the angles are 80°, 70°, and unknown

[] For triangle ABC the angles are 80°, 40°, and unknown

-> 180° - 80° - 40° = 60°

-> Triangle ABC has angles of 80°, 40°, and 60°

[] For triangle DEF the angles are 80°, 70°, and unknown

-> 180° - 80° - 70° = 30°

-> Triangle DEF has angles of 80°, 70°, and 30°

[] A. The triangles are not similar to each other.

-> Since we do not have any side lengths, we must go off of AA (angle & angle) but as AA is not true, these triangles are not similar

Have a nice day!

I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly.
