In the following diagrams there is a pair of similar triangles and one triangle that is not similar to the others.
Determine which are similar and calculate their similarity ratio.
In the following diagrams there is a pair of similar triangles and one triangle that is not similar to the others.
Determine which are similar and calculate their similarity ratio.
We will analyze the given triangles to establish which ones are similar:
To check for similarity using the Side-Side-Side (SSS) criterion, we compare the ratios of the corresponding sides of each triangle:
The only pair of triangles meeting the similarity condition based on the SSS criterion is Triangle II and Triangle III, with a similarity ratio of .
Therefore, Triangles II and III are similar with a similarity ratio of 2.
This matches with the correct given answer, choice 4: .
II, III, 2
