Answer:

JKL and ABC

DEF and GHI

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding angles is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

so

In this problem

1) triangles JKL and ABC are similar

because

[tex]\frac{KL}{BC} =\frac{JL}{AC}[/tex]

substitute the given values

[tex]\frac{10}{20} =\frac{7}{14}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  ---> is true

therefore

The ratio of the corresponding sides is proportional

That means----> The triangles are similar

2) triangles DEF and GHI are similar

because

[tex]\frac{HI}{EF} =\frac{GI}{DF}[/tex]

substitute the given values

[tex]\frac{15}{10} =\frac{12}{8}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]1.5=1.5[/tex]  ---> is true

therefore

The ratio of the corresponding sides is proportional

That means----> The triangles are similar

The pairs of triangles that are similar to each other are:

B. ΔDEF ~ ΔGHI

E. ΔJKL ~ ΔABC

Similar Triangles

Corresponding angles of two triangles that are similar are always congruent, however, their corresponding sides are proportional to each other. This means, their ratio is equal.

Thus, triangles KJL and ABC are similar triangles because:

BC/KL = AC/JL = 2

Also, triangles DEF and GHI are similar triangles because:

GI/DF = HI/EF = 1.5

Therefore, the pairs of triangles that are similar to each other are:

B. ΔDEF ~ ΔGHI

E. ΔJKL ~ ΔABC
