Station 3 – Are the triangles similar? Why?
Directions: Determine whether the triangles are similar. If they are, name the two similar triangles and give a reason (AA Similarity, SAS Similarity or SSS Similarity). If you cannot prove that they are similar, circle no conclusion. 1. 2. M 12 E A G K 27 5 18 12 6 18 4 L C 14 B J 21 2 D F H 8 3. 4. S N R 6 L 8 M T 12 Q 9 P V W
