Similar Triangles Analysis: Comparing Triangles with Sides (6,8,9) and (5,8,9)

Question

Are the triangles below similar?

00:00 Are the triangles similar?

00:03 We want to find the similarity ratio

00:07 This is the ratio of sides

00:10 If all side ratios are equal, then the triangles are similar

00:13 This pair of sides ratio is equal

00:17 This pair of sides ratio is not equal

00:24 The similarity ratio is not equal, therefore the triangles are not similar

00:28 And this is the solution to the question

The sides of the triangles are not equal and, therefore, the triangles are not similar.
