Question

Write a similarity statement comparing the two triangles.

△BDC∼△EDA
△BCD∼△EDA
△EAD∼△BDC

Answer 1

• A. △BDC∼△EDA

Explanation:

Corresponding angles are:

• ∠A ≅ ∠C
• ∠D ≅ ∠D
• ∠B ≅ ∠E

Use same order of corresponding vertices in the name of triangles.

Choices are:

• △BDC∼△EDA, correct
• △BCD∼△EDA, incorrect should be △BCD∼△EAD
• △EAD∼△BDC, incorrect should be △EAD∼△BCD
