• Not Enough Information

If ΔQRS is similar to ΔNOP, which angle of ΔNOP corresponds with angle R?

• < N

• < O

• < P

• < S

ΔHIJ ~ ΔKLM
Which of the following statements is not true?

• < I corresponds to < L

• Segment HI corresponds to Segment LK

• Segment LM corresponds to Segment IJ

• < H corresponds to < K

Tell whether the two figures are similar. Explain your reasoning.

• Yes, similar because they are the same shape and side lengths are proportional.

• No, not similar because they are the same shape, but side lengths are not proportional.

• Yes, same shape

• No, different sizes

Are the following similar? Why or why not?

• Yes. All pairs of corresponding angles are congruent and all corresponding sides are proportional.

• No, the corresponding angles are not equal.

• No, the ratios of the corresponding sides are not equal.

• No, the corresponding sides are not proportional.

• A
• B
• C
• D
