Which proportion could be used to show the slope of line VX is equal to the slope of line XZ?

Triangle PQR and RST are similar right triangles. Which proportion can be used to show that the slope of line PR is equal to the slope of line RT?

Triangle DEF and triangle GHI are similar triangles. Based on this information, which statement is true?

• The relationship between the slope of the hypotenuse of triangle DEF and the slope of the hupotenuse of triangle GHI cannot be determined.

• The slope of the hypotenuse of triangle DEF is greater than the slope of the hypotenuse of triangle GHI.

• The slope of the hypotenuse of triangle DEF is less than the slope of the hypotenuse of triangle GHI.

• The slope of the hypotenuse of triangle DEF is equal to the slope of the hypotenuse of triangle GHI.

• The slope of line XZ is the negative reciprocal of the slope of line CA because the triangles are flipped.

• The slope of line XZ is the same as the slope of line CA because the ratios of the corresponding sides of the triangles are equivalent.

• The is no relationship between the slope of line XZ and the slope of line CA.
