A). They are not similar, because 6/13 is not equal to 8/20

For triangles to be similar, the ratios of sides need to be the same (shortest to shortest, middle to middle, longest to longest). The shortest sides are 6 and 13, respectively, the middle ones are 8 and 20. Because 6/13 is not equal to 8/20, the triangles are not similar.

The statement best explains whether △ABC is similar to △DEF is (A) The triangles are not similar because 613≠820.

What are similar triangles?

Similar triangles are triangles that have similar corresponding side lengths

The corresponding sides of the triangles are:

Triangle A        Triangle B

6                              13

8                              20

10                             25

Calculate the ratios

Ratio = 6/13

Ratio = 8/20

The ratios are not equal.

Hence, the triangles are not similar
