Answer:

The triangles are similar due to the Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate

Explanation:

Use the triangle-sum postulate to figure out the missing angle measurements by subtracting the given info for each triangle.

angle E: 180 -60-53 = 67, corresponds with angle H.

angle G: 180-60-67= 53, corresponds with angle D.

Since all of the angles have corresponding measurements with the other triangle, the triangles are similar.

Answer:

Yes these two triangles are similar I know this because all of the angles are the same. But the only differenc is the size one is bigger one is smaller.

Hope this answers your question!
