Determine whether each pair of triangles is similar. if similarity exists, write a congruency statement relating to the two triangles. give a justification for your answer.

Answer with explanation:

In Δ L V U and Δ G OE

⇒Δ L V U ~ Δ G OE-------[Side-Side-Side(SSS)]

If Corresponding sides of Triangle are Proportional, then two triangles are Similar.

By C PCT

→∠L=∠G

→∠V=∠O

→∠U=∠E

Also , if two triangles are Similar, then the Triangles may or may not be Congruent, but if triangles are Congruent then it guarantees similarity of triangles .

⇒Δ L V U and Δ G OE , would have been Congruent, if their corresponding sides would have been equal that is by SSS, S AS,A AS.Here the two triangles are not congruent.

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents
