Establishing Triangle Similarity Criteria

Tell whether the triangles are similar or not.

• a

• b

Are the triangles similar?

• Yes

• No

Which triangles are similar to triangle A?

• B

• C

• Both

• None

What is the similarity statement for the triangle pair?

• ΔXYZ~ΔNEW

• ΔXZY~ΔNWE

• ΔZYX~ΔENW

• ΔYZX~ΔNWE

State if the triangles in each pair are similar. If so, state how you know they are similar.

• Yes, AA Similarity

• Yes, SSS Similarity

• Yes, SAS Similarity

• Not Similar

State if the triangles in each pair are similar. If so, state how you know they are similar.

• Yes, AA Similarity

• Yes, SSS Similarity

• Yes, SAS Similarity

• Not Similar

Determine whether the triangles are similar by AA~, SSS~, SAS~, or not similar. Select all that applies.

• AA

• SAS

• SSS

• not similar
