Leon drew triangle abc and triangle def so that angle a is congruent to angle d, andgle b is congruent to angle e, ab = 4, and de = 8. are triangle abc and triangle def similar? if so, identify the similarity postulate or theorem that applies.

The correct option is D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given triangle ABC and triangle DEF so that ∠A≅∠D, ∠B≅∠E, AB = 4, and DE = 8. we have to tell the similarity theorem or postulate that applies to prove above triangles congruent.

In ΔABC and ΔDEF

∠A=∠D    (Given)

∠B=∠E     (given)

Two angles are congruent

Hence, by AA similarity postulate which states that if the two corresponding angles of two triangles are congruent they are similar i.e ΔABC~ΔDEF

Hence, The correct option is D
