Angle- Angle Similarity

  • If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar


  •  if <A ≅ <F and <B ≅<G, then ΔABC ∼ΔFGHif\ <A\ \cong\ <F\ and\ <B\ \cong<G,\ then\ \Delta ABC\ \sim\Delta FGH

Determine whether the triangles are similar. If so write a similarity statement

  • Yes <A and <E have the same measurement

  • If you find what the missing angle measurements are you notice these are similar Triangles.
