Explanation:

Step1: Identify corresponding angles

In the left - hand triangle, we have angles \(I\) and \(G\). In the right - hand triangle, we have angles \(U\) and \(V\). Since two pairs of angles are marked as congruent (by the arc markings), we use the AA (Angle - Angle) similarity criterion.

Step2: Write the similarity statement

The order of the letters in the similarity statement corresponds to the order of the congruent angles. So, \(\triangle IGG\sim\triangle UVV\) (assuming the un - named vertices are named appropriately based on the angle - angle correspondence. If the first triangle has angles \(I\), \(G\), and the third angle (let's say \(X\)) and the second triangle has angles \(U\), \(V\), and the third angle (let's say \(Y\)) with \(\angle I=\angle U\) and \(\angle G = \angle V\), then \(\triangle IGX\sim\triangle UVY\))

Answer:

\(\triangle IGG\sim\triangle UVV\) (adjust the vertex labels based on the actual triangle vertex names. If the first triangle has vertices \(I\), \(G\), \(A\) and the second has \(U\), \(V\), \(B\) with \(\angle I=\angle U\) and \(\angle G=\angle V\), then \(\triangle IGA\sim\triangle UVB\))
