Proving Triangles Similar

Determine if triangle STU and triangle VWX are or are not similar, and, if they are, state how you know. (Note that figures are NOT necessarily drawn to scale.)

• The triangles are not similar

Why are the triangles NOT similar?

• There is not enough information given

• The corresponding sides are not proportional.

• These triangles ARE similar by SAS similarity
