#5

Which similarity criterion is used to prove that two triangles are similar if two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle?

Angle-Angle (AA) Criterion
Explanation

Two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle.

#6

In triangle ABC and triangle DEF, angle A is congruent to angle D, and angle B is congruent to angle E. Which similarity criterion can be used to prove that the two triangles are similar?

Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Criterion
Explanation

Two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of another triangle.

#7

If triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF, and the ratio of the lengths of corresponding sides is 2:3, what is the ratio of their perimeters?

3:2
Explanation

The ratio of perimeters is the same as the ratio of corresponding sides.

40°
Explanation

Corresponding angles in similar triangles are equal.

#10

If triangle PQR is similar to triangle STU with a scale factor of 1:2, and the area of triangle PQR is 36 square units, what is the area of triangle STU?

144 square units
Explanation

The ratio of areas of similar triangles is the square of the scale factor.

#11

In triangle XYZ, if the ratio of the lengths of corresponding sides is 3:4 and the perimeter is 42 units, what is the perimeter of triangle XYZ?

48 units
Explanation

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its side lengths.
