Question

In the figure given, PM = 6, MN = 10 UV = 3, VW=5 Are the two triangles similar ? Justify.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given :  IN TRIANGLE PMN AND TRIANGLE UVW ,PM=6, MN=10, UV=3, VW=5, ANGLE PMN=60⁰, ANGLE UVW= 60⁰

To find : THE TEST IN WHICH TRIANGLE PMN AND TRIANGLE UVW ARE SIMILAR  

Solution

PM = 6    . MN = 10  

UV = 3     VW = 5

PM/UV  = 6/3 = 2

MN/VW = 10/5 = 2

PM/UV = MN/VW

∠PMN = ∠UVW = 60°

=> SAS  

ΔPMN ≈ ΔUVW

Side Angle Side SAS
