Question
show what you know
how can you determine if two triangles are similar?
by checking if at least two pairs of corresponding sides are congruent
by checking if at least two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent
by confirming they have the same area
by confirming they have the same perimeter
Brief Explanations
- Similar triangles have the same shape but not necessarily the same size.
- The AA (Angle - Angle) similarity criterion states that if two pairs of corresponding angles of two triangles are congruent, then the triangles are similar.
- Congruent sides (as in the first option) are for congruent triangles (same shape and size). Same area or perimeter (third and fourth options) does not guarantee similarity.
