Question

determine if the 2 triangles are similar. if so, determine why theorem is used to prove it. answer not similar similar because of aa similar because of asa similar because of sas similar because of sss

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate side - length ratios

For the first triangle with side - lengths 8, 18, 24 and the second triangle with side - lengths 4, 12, 6.
The ratios of corresponding sides are: $\frac{8}{4}=2$, $\frac{18}{12}=\frac{3}{2}$, $\frac{24}{6} = 4$. Since the ratios of the corresponding sides are not equal.

Answer:

Not Similar
