Question

Westin is comparing the triangles below.

He uses the similarity statement . Which best describes the accuracy of Westin’s statement?
Accurate. HG and LJ are proportional.
Inaccurate. HG and LJ are not corresponding sides.
Inaccurate. The sides are not proportional. There is no common ratio between the sides.
Inaccurate. The angles in the order listed do not correspond.

Answer 1

its a

Explanation:

Answer 2

Accurate. HG and LJ are proportional

Explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem Triangles GHF and LJK are similar, because its corresponding angles are congruent

therefore

Its corresponding sides are proportional

GH/LJ=HF/JK=FG/KL

Accurate. HG and LJ are proportional
