hope this helps u
ΔABC and Δdef
we will prove by sss rule
a=(-2 ,0) b=(0,2) c=(2,0)
d=(-4,0) e=(0,4) f=(4,0)
a/d=b/e=c/f
-2,0/-4,0=0,2/0,4=2,0/4,0
0/0 get cancelled
-2/-4=2/4=2/4
1/2=1/2=1/2
1:2
since sides are proportional by 1:2 If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar.
⇒ ΔABC ~is similar ΔDEF
