Consider â–³RST and â–³RYX.
Triangle R S T is shown. Line X Y is drawn parallel to side S T within triangle R S T to form triangle R Y X.
If the triangles are similar, which must be true?
StartFraction R Y Over Y S EndFraction = StartFraction R X Over X T EndFraction = StartFraction X Y Over T S EndFraction
StartFraction R Y Over R S EndFraction = StartFraction R X Over R T EndFraction = StartFraction X Y Over T S EndFraction
StartFraction R Y Over R S EndFraction = StartFraction R X Over R T EndFraction = StartFraction R S Over R Y EndFraction
StartFraction R Y Over R X EndFraction = StartFraction R S Over R T EndFraction = StartFraction X Y Over T S EndFraction
To prove that the triangles are similar by the SAS similarity theorem, it needs to be shown that
