Look at the right triangle ABC:

Right triangle ABC has a right angle at B. Segment BD meets segment AC at a right angle.

A student made the following chart to prove that AB2 + BC2 = AC2:

Statement Justification
1. Triangle ABC is similar to triangle BDC 1. Angle ABC = Angle BDC and Angle BCA = Angle BCD
2. BC2 = AC ⋅ DC 2. BC ÷ DC = AC ÷ BC because triangle ABC is similar to triangle BDC
3. Triangle ABC is similar to triangle ABD 3. Angle ABC = Angle BAD and Angle BAC = Angle ABD
4. AB2 = AC ⋅ AD 4. AB ÷ AD = AC ÷ AB because triangle ABC is similar to triangle ADB
5. AB2 + BC2 = AC ⋅ AD + AC ⋅ DC = AC (AD + DC) 5. Adding Statement 1 and Statement 2
6. AB2 + BC2 = AC2 6. AD + DC = AC

Gary is using an indirect method to prove that segment DE is not parallel to segment BC in the triangle ABC shown below:

A triangle ABC is shown. D is a point on side AB and E is a point on side AC. Points D and E are joined using a straight line.

The figure shows three right triangles. Triangles PQS, QRS, and PRQ are similar.

Theorem: If two triangles are similar, the corresponding sides are in proportion.

Figure shows triangle PQR with right angle at Q. Segment PQ is 4 and segment QR is 9. Point S is on segment PR and angles QSP a

Using the given theorem, which two statements help to prove that if segment PR is x, then x2 = 97? (1 point)


Segment PR ⋅ segment PS = 16
Segment PR ⋅ segment SR = 36

Segment PR ⋅ segment PS = 36
Segment PR ⋅ segment SR = 81

Segment PR ⋅ segment PS = 16
Segment PR ⋅ segment SR = 81

Segment PR ⋅ segment PS = 81
Segment PR ⋅ segment SR = 16
