Answer:

6. Not similar

7, Are similar

Explanation:

In problem 6 one triangle is a SSA situation and the other triangle is SAS, we cannot say the triangles are similar.

In problem 7, both triangles are a SAS situation, so we need to see if corresponding sides are in proportion.

Is 10/25 = 18/45?

10/25 = .4 and 18/45 = .4

Therefore, the triangles are similar
