Question

If AB=6and AC=8, which statement will justify similarity by SAS?

Answer 1

1). is the correct answer.

Answer 2

the answer to this problem is choice 4 because

`ab = 6 \: \: and \: \: ac = 8`
so we need to find the answer choice such that we can set up a proportion of sides that are equal

`(ab)/(de) = (ac)/(df)`
plugging in choice we find choice 4 is correct because

`(15)/(6) = (20)/(8)`
simplify and get

`2.5 = 2.5`
this would mean the sides are similar of both triangles. now we can consider the angle were given and justify that both triangles are similar under choice 4
