ANSWER:

I will attach the image so you can better understand.

4/3=slope = Definition of slope

4/3 = 16/12 = Triangle A is similar to Triangle B

Explanation:

If slope of triangles are equal than Triangle A is similar to triangle B.

so, in statement
(4)/(3) =
(16)/(12) when we simplify

we get
(4)/(3) =
(4)/(3)

then the reason for this statement is "If slope of triangles are equal"

And the definition of slope in general is
m=(y)/(x)

so, for the statement
(4)/(3) =slope , the reason is Definition of slope.
