Question

Which triangle is similar to ΔJKL? ΔJKM, ΔMKL, ΔKML, ΔLJK.

Answer 1

The answer would be ΔKML because the right angle of ΔKML is in the same place as ΔJKL

Answer 2

Answer:

Triangle $\triangle KML$ is similar to the given triangle $\triangle JKL$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us analyze the given options one by one.

$\triangle JKM$ is not similar to the triangle $\triangle JKL$ because it is not written in correct order. The way we write the triangle (order of vertices) is very important. Since angles K of both the triangles are not equal, therefore, order is messed up. If the order had been $\triangle JMK$ then this would have been correct.

$\triangle MKL$ is not similar to triangle $\triangle JKL$ because the corresponding angles are not equal. Again the order it not right. If the order had been $\triangle KML$, then this option would have been correct.

$\triangle KML$ is similar to the given triangle $\triangle JKL$ because corresponding angles of both the triangles are equal.

$\triangle LJK$ is not similar to the given triangle $\triangle JKL$ because the corresponding angles of the two triangles are not equal.
