Answer:
∠AEI ≅ ∠DEH because vertical angles are congruent; rotate ΔHED 180° around point E, then translate point D to point A to confirm ∠IAE ≅ ∠HDE.
Step-by-step explanation:
tbh im not suuper sure but my educated guess is that by looking at it. Good Luck!
Two triangles are said to be similar by AA if two angles of both triangles are equal. The explanation that proves the similarity of [tex]\triangle AEI[/tex] and [tex]\triangle DEH[/tex] by AA is option (a)
Given that: [tex]\triangle AEI[/tex] and [tex]\triangle DEH[/tex]
To prove that [tex]\triangle AEI[/tex] and [tex]\triangle DEH[/tex] are similar by AA, it means that two corresponding angles of both triangles must be congruent. So, the following must be true:
- The angle at point E in both triangles must be equal. i.e. [tex]\angle AEI \cong \angle DEH[/tex]. This is so because the angle at E is a vertical angle to both triangles, and vertical angles are congruent.
- The angle at A and D of both triangles must be equal, i.e. [tex]\angle IAE \cong HDE[/tex]. This is so because a 180 degrees rotation of [tex]\triangle DEH[/tex] around the center E will give a similar (but larger) triangle to [tex]\triangle AEI[/tex]. Point D can then be shifted to A.
Hence, (a) is true
