question 2
the side lenghts of the corresponding sides of similar triangles are
__________.
○ proportion
○ congruent
○ double
○ inverse
To solve this, we recall the definition of similar triangles. Similar triangles have corresponding angles equal and corresponding sides in proportion (i.e., the ratios of corresponding sides are equal). "Congruent" applies to triangles with equal corresponding sides (congruent triangles, a special case of similar with scale factor 1). "Double" is too specific (only true for a specific scale factor, not general similarity). "Inverse" does not relate to side - length relationships in similar triangles. So the correct term is "proportion".
