To compare and constract: between the AA-similarity, SSS- similarity, SAS similarity, theorem

Answer to Problem 37HP
All three postulates and theorems are used to show
Explanation of Solution
All three postulates and theorems are used to show triangles are similar.
They differ by what is required.
AA Similarity Postulate: If two angles in one triangle are congruent to two angles in another triangle, the two triangles are similar.
SSS Similarity Theorem: If all three pairs of corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar.
The SAS Similarity Theorem states that if two sides in one triangle are proportional to two sides in another triangle and the included angle in both are congruent, then the two triangles are similar.

- Can someone help me with this please?arrow_forwardMariela is in her classroom and looking out of a window at a tree, which is 20 feet away. Mariela’s line of sight to the top of the tree creates a 42° angle of elevation, and her line of sight to the base of the tree creates a 31° angle of depression. What is the height of the tree, rounded to the nearest foot? Be sure to show your work to explain how you got your answer.arrow_forward1arrow_forward
