Triangle ABC Is ShownWhich Fact Is Not Used To Prove That ABC Is Similar To DBE class=

Answer :

If triangle ABC is similar to DBE, then:

- Segments AC and DE must be parallel: Both lines are parallel because they do not intersect each other

-AB is a transversal line passing AC and DE: DE intersects AB and BC in the same ratio, So AC and DE are parallel.

Angle B is congruent to itself due to the reflexive property:

Looking at the triangles, the next angles ∠BAC and ∠BDE are corresponding.

Hence, the only option that is not valid for similar triangles is "The sum of angles A and B are supplementary to angle C".

The correct answer is the first option.
