Question 1 (v)
State whether the pair of triangles in the below figure is similar. Write the similarity criterion used by you for answering the question and also write the pair of similar triangles in the symbolic form:

Answer 1

$\left(v\right)In\Delta ABC$ and $\Delta DEF$, we have
$AB=2.5,BC=3,\angle A={80}^{\circ },EF=6,DF=5,\angle F={80}^{\circ }$
Here,$\frac{AB}{DF}=\frac{2.5}{5}=\frac{1}{2}$
And,$\frac{BC}{EF}=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow \angle B\ne \angle F$
Hence, $\Delta ABC$ and $\Delta DEF$ are not similar.
