Answer 1

#5

Ratio of corresponding sides of ΔACE and ΔBCD:

• AC/BC = 15/10 = 1.5
• EC/DC = 12/8 = 1.5

The triangles have similar sides and common included angle C.

• ΔACE ~ ΔBCD by SAS

#6

Let's verify if the sides (from the least to greatest length) have same ratio:

• EG/ML = 10/15 = 2/3
• FG/LN = 14/21 = 2/3
• EF/MN = 18/27 = 2/3

The ratios are same, it means:

• ΔEFG ~ ΔMNL by SSS
