To find: The comparison and contrast for the congruent, similar, and equal figures.

Answer to Problem 55HP
The comparison and contrast for the congruent, similar, and equal figures is explained.
Explanation of Solution
Consider that the similar
The equal triangles are the triangles that have same lengths of the sides and same measure of the
Consider that the contrast is congruent triangles are similar and the similar triangles are not congruent.
Thus, the comparison and contrast for the congruent, similar, and equal figures is explained.

- The three right triangles below are similar. The acute angles LL, LR, and ZZ are all approximately measured to be 66.9°. The side lengths for each triangle are as follows. Note that the triangles are not drawn to scale.

Her helicopter took off from the skydiving center, ascending in an angle of 37°, and traveled a distance of 2.1 kilometers before she fell in a straight line perpendicular to the ground. How far from the skydiving center did Stella land? Be sure to have all three parts of a CER answer: make a claim, provide evidence, and explain your reasoning for full credit. 2.1 km Landing spot 37% Skydiving centerarrow_forward
