Question

question
determine if triangle opq and triangle rst are or are not similar, and if they are, state how you know. (note that figures are not
necessarily drawn to scale.)
answer attempt 1 out of 2
the triangles similar.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the ratios of corresponding sides

For triangle \(OPQ\) and \(RST\), we have the following side - length pairs:
\(\frac{OP}{RT}=\frac{22}{80}=\frac{11}{40}\), \(\frac{PQ}{RS}=\frac{25}{110}=\frac{5}{22}\), \(\frac{OQ}{ST}=\frac{16}{125}\)

Since \(\frac{11}{40}
eq\frac{5}{22}
eq\frac{16}{125}\)

Answer:

The triangles \(OPQ\) and \(RST\) are not similar.
