Question

Which best explains the relationship between the two triangles below? A. ΔADC ~ ΔRTS because ∠A ≅ ∠R, ∠C ≅ ∠S, and ∠D ≅ ∠T. B. ΔADC ~ ΔRTS because ∠A ~ ∠R, ∠C ~ ∠S, and ∠D ~ ∠T. C. ΔADC is not similar to ΔRTS because ∠D is not congruent to ∠S. D. ΔADC is not similar to ΔRTS because SD < ST, DA < TR, and CA < SR.

Answer 1

ΔADC ~ ΔRTS

Explanation:

Answer 2

A. ΔADC ~ ΔRTS because ∠A ≅ ∠R, ∠C ≅ ∠S, and ∠D ≅ ∠T

Explanation:

The alternative itself answers the question. Just remember that two triangles are similar if the only difference is size.

∠DCA = 32.3º and ∠RTS = 51.2º
