QuestionWhich statement is true for triangles ABCA B C and DEFD E F with AB=9,BC=15,DE=6,EF=10A B=9, B C=15, D E=6, E F=10, and BE\angle B \cong \angle E? a. CABDEF\angle C A B \cong \angle D E F b. ABCB=FEDE\frac{A B}{C B}=\frac{F E}{D E} c. ABCDEF\triangle A B C \cong \triangle D E F d. ABDE=FECB\frac{A B}{D E}=\frac{F E}{C B}

Studdy Solution
Now, let's check each statement given in the problem to see which one is true.
a. CABDEF\angle CAB \cong \angle DEF
We don't have enough information to determine whether this statement is true, so we can't choose this option.
b. ABCB=FEDE\frac{AB}{CB} = \frac{FE}{DE}This is not the correct ratio of the corresponding sides of the similar triangles, so this statement is false.
c. ABCDEF\triangle ABC \cong \triangle DEF
The triangles are similar, not congruent, so this statement is false.
d. ABDE=FECB\frac{AB}{DE} = \frac{FE}{CB}This is the correct ratio of the corresponding sides of the similar triangles, so this statement is true.
The correct answer is d. ABDE=FECB\frac{AB}{DE} = \frac{FE}{CB}.
