About proofs. Please help finish the blanks. *Maybe you will have to use some of these theorems to prove the statement true...according to this unit.

Theorem 57- If two triangles have the three angles of one equal respectively to the three angles of the other, then the triangles are similar

Corollary 57-1 If two angles of one triangle are equal respectively to two angles of another, then the triangles are similar. (a.a.)

Corollary 57-2 Two right triangles are similar if an acute angle of one is equal to an acute angle of the other.

Theorem 58-If two triangles have two pairs of sides proportional and the included angles equal respectively, then the two triangles are similar. (s.a.s.)

Corollary 58-1 If the legs of one right triangle are proportional to the legs of another, the triangles are similar. (l.l.)

Theorem 59- If two triangles have their sides respectively proportional, then the triangles are similar. (s.s.s.)

Theorem 60- If two parallels are cut by three or more transversals passing through a common point, then the corresponding segments of the parallels are proportional.

C.A.S.T.E. - corresponding angles of similar triangles are equal

C.S.S.T.P. - corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional
