Question

2 mark for review right triangles lmn and pqr are similar, where l and m correspond to p and q, respectively. angle m has a measure of 53°. what is the measure of angle q? a 37° b 53° c 127° d 143°

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Similar Triangles Property

In similar triangles, corresponding angles are equal. So angle \( M \) corresponds to angle \( Q \).

Step2: Determine Angle \( Q \) Measure

Given angle \( M = 53^\circ \), by the property of similar triangles (corresponding angles equal), angle \( Q = \) angle \( M = 53^\circ \).

Answer:

B. \( 53^\circ \)
