Question
![The pair of triangles shown are [Dropdown: congruent or similar] because the sides are [Dropdown: proportional or equal] and corresponding angles are [Dropdown: equal or proportional].
Below the text, there are two right-angled triangles:
1. Triangle RQS:
- Angle R is a right angle (90 degrees).
- Angle Q is 37 degrees.
- Side QR (adjacent to the right angle and 37-degree angle) is 12 units long.
- Side QS (opposite the 37-degree angle) is 9 units long.
- Hypotenuse RS is 15 units long.
2. Triangle JKL:
- Angle J is a right angle (90 degrees).
- Angle K is 37 degrees.
- Side JK (adjacent to the right angle and 37-degree angle) is 6 units long.
- Side KL (opposite the 37-degree angle) is 8 units long.
- Hypotenuse JL is 10 units long.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fdd28fcc8-885a-4547-a872-abbdae9c6c72%2F67a0c53d-a1a7-489f-b452-9c13f0aa0657%2Fkiobvie_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
