4. I said no because they do not equal the same degree

5.  yes because they both add up to the same degree 

## Determine whether △CDE ~ △FGH.

### Problem 4:

- **Triangle CDE:**
  - Angle C = 39°
  - Angle E = 72°

- **Triangle FGH:**
  - Angle F = 41°
  - Angle H = 72°

### Problem 5:

- **Triangle CDE:**
  - Angle C = 60°
  - Angle E = 60°

- **Triangle FGH:**
  - Angle G = 60°
  - Angle H = 60°

### Explanation:

To determine if two triangles are similar, check if their corresponding angles are equal. In problem 4, compare the given angles to check similarity. In problem 5, note that both triangles are equilateral, with all angles 60°, making them similar by default.
