  1. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
  2. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
  3. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:
    +close
  4. Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
  5. Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules.
  6. If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

hey guys sorry for not clarigying i found the ratio for taking alpha as for triangle abc and for raingle pda , then i tried for dbq , alpha is obviously outside of triangle dbq so it cant be that then i tried seeing if the value of sine is equal to any one of the angles inside dbq , but to no avail

how are the triangles similar by aa criteria ?

lavish heron
#

So, prove that the triangle with sides b, d, q is similar to the one with sides a, d, p.

#

both have a 90 degree angle in them but what else do they share

#

the red one is 90 - alpha and green one is 90 - angle bq

lavish heron
#

So, what is the green angle?

split hamlet
#

in the angle sum prop of abc ?

lavish heron
#

What?

split hamlet
#

, im confused

lavish heron
#

What is the sum of the green and red angles?

split hamlet
#

green + red =180 -(alpha +angle bq)

#

...... am i wrong ...??

#

the silence is killing me

lavish heron
#

Look at the picture.

#

The sum of red and green angles is 90°.
