Question 58 • CMS 2026-2027 Foundations of Math 3 INITIAL CREDIT
How can the triangles be proven similar by the SAS similarity theorem?
Answer
A
Show that the ratios the fraction with numerator cap u cap v and denominator cap x cap y and the fraction with numerator cap w cap v and denominator cap z cap y are equivalent, and angle cap v is congruent to angle cap y .
B
Show that the ratios the fraction with numerator cap x cap z and denominator cap w cap u and the fraction with numerator cap z cap y and denominator cap w cap v are equivalent, and angle cap u is congruent to angle cap z .
C
Show that the ratios the fraction with numerator cap u cap w and denominator cap z cap x and the fraction with numerator cap x cap y and denominator cap w cap v are equivalent, and angle cap w is congruent to angle cap x .
D
Show that the ratios the fraction with numerator cap x cap y and denominator cap v cap u and the fraction with numerator cap y cap z and denominator cap v cap w are equivalent, and angle cap u is congruent to angle cap x .
