Given:


ABDF\sim VXZT

To find:

The pairs of congruent angles and the extended proportion that relates the corresponding sides for the similar polygons.

Solution:

We have,


ABDF\sim VXZT

The corresponding angles of similar polygons are congruent. So,


\angle A\cong \angle V


\angle B\cong \angle X


\angle D\cong \angle Z


\angle F\cong \angle T

The corresponding sides of similar polygons are proportional. So,


(AB)/(VX)=(BD)/(XZ)=(DF)/(ZT)=(A F)/(VT)

Therefore, the required solutions are
\angle A\cong \angle V,\angle B\cong \angle X,\angle D\cong \angle Z,\angle F\cong \angle T and
(AB)/(VX)=(BD)/(XZ)=(DF)/(ZT)=(A F)/(VT).
