In figure below, if \( \angle \mathrm{D}=\angle \mathrm{C} \), then is it true that \( \triangle \mathrm{ADE} \sim \triangle \mathrm{ACB} ? \) Why?
"
Given:
\( \angle \mathrm{D}=\angle \mathrm{C} \)
To do:
We have to find whether \( \triangle \mathrm{ADE} \sim \triangle \mathrm{ACB} \).
Solution:
In $\triangle ADE$ and $\triangle ACB$,
$\angle A = \angle A$ (Common)
$\angle D = \angle C$ (Given)
Therefore, by AA similarity,
$\triangle ADE \sim \triangle ACB$
