Step 1
Given,
KLM
with angles 90,48 and 42
and sides KL=7.4, ML=11 and KM=8.2
WYZ
with angles 90,51 and 39
and sides WY=6.4, YZ=4 and WZ=5
We have to find the similarity between the KLM and WYZ and scale factor
Step 2
We know
In similar triangles , all the three angles are same
We have
KLM with angles 90,48 and 42
and
WYZ with angles 90,51 and 39
So,
All the angles are not same .
Then,
KLM and WYZ are not similar.
