Answer:

3) ΔQRS ~ ΔQFG

5) ΔRST ~ ΔGFE

Explanation:

3) Shortest to longest, the side ratios are ...

RQ : QS = 6 : 12 = 1 : 2 (reduced)

FQ : QG = 2 : 4 = 1 : 2 (reduced)

ΔQRS ~ ΔQFG

__

5) FE : EG : GF = 18 : 24 : 26 = 9 : 12 : 13 (reduced)

ST : TR : RS = 27 : 36 : 39 = 9 : 12 : 13 (reduced)

ΔRST ~ ΔGFE
