Question 1 to 6:

Triangles XYZ and NPQ are similar triangles.

This means that:

Angles Z and Q, lines YZ and PQ, angles P and Y, angles X and N, lines NQ and XZ, lines PN and YX are corresponding sides and angles

Question 7 to 12:

Triangles LMN and CBA are similar triangles.

This means that:

Collect like terms

Make z the subject

Substitute in
