Which similarity statement expresses the relationship between the two triangles? Triangle X Y Z is similar to Triangle Q R S Triangle X Y Z is similar to Triangle R Q S Triangle Z X Y is similar to triangle Q S R Triangle Z X Y is similar to triangle Q R S

Answer 1

Triangle XYZ is similar to Triangle RQS

Explanation:

Triangle XYZ is similar to Triangle RQS

XZ/SR = 12/3 = 4

ZY/QS = 16/4 = 4

YX/RQ = 14/3.5 = 4

similar figures have all corresponding sides in the same ratio
