The figure shows triangle abc and line segment pq, which is parallel to bc: part a: is triangle abc similar to triangle apq? explain using what you know about triangle similarity. (5 points) part b: which line segment on triangle apq corresponds to line segment bc? explain your answer. (3 points) part c: which angle on triangle apq corresponds to angle b? explain your answer. (2 points)

A: ΔABC ≅ ΔAPQ

B: Line PQ corresponds line BC.

C: ∠APQ≅∠B

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question line segment PQ is parallel to BC in triangle ABC.

A. Yes Δ ABC is similar to ΔAPQ.

As we know in both the triangles line PQ is parallel to BC and AB is transversal to them then ∠APQ = ∠ABC ( corresponding angles)

∠AQP=∠ACB = 90° and ∠BAC is common in both.

So all angles are same which proves ΔAPQ≅ΔABC

B: In ΔAPQ line PQ corresponds to line segment BC.

C: In ΔAPQ, ∠APQ ≅ ∠B
