Determine whether the triangles are similar. If so, write a similarity statement and name the postulate or theorem you used. If not, explain. Choose the correct answer below. O A. Yes, ASCW - AVCD because Zs ZV and wC SC Thus, the triangles are simlar by the SAS- theorem. DC VČ O B. Yes, ASCW - AVCD because ZS ZV and ZscW = ZVCD. Thus, the triangles are simlar by the AA- postulate. Oc. SC WS wC Yes, ASCW- AVDC because Thus, the triangles are similar by the SSS- theorem. %3D VC VD O D. No, the triangles are not similar because no theorem or postulate can be satisfied.
