Answer:

Yes, because m<UVW is congruent to m<XVY and m<VUW is congruent to m<VXY

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

we know that

$m< VUW=55\°$

the measure of angle VXY is equal to

$m$ -----> by supplementary angles

$m$

therefore

$m< VUW=m$

Remember that

m<UVW=m<XVY -----> is the same vertex

therefore

Triangles VUW and VXY are similar by AAA Similarity Theorem ( the three angles are congruent)

Which lines are parallel if M^4 +M^5? Justify your answer.

Opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines are equal, so angle 1 is the same as angle 4. That means angle 1 = angle 5 as well.

<span>When a line intersects two parallel lines, the corresponding angles are equal. That is, if r and s are parallel, then the angles formed when l intersects r are the same s the angles formed when l intersects s. Angle 1 = Angle 5, Angle 2 = Angle 6, and so forth. Since we know angle 1 = angle 5, so from that you can see that r and s are parallel</span>
