A. The slope formed by ΔABC has a slope that is equal to the slope formed by ΔCDE. This is because the two triangles are similar, meaning they have the same shape and their corresponding angles are congruent. Therefore, their corresponding sides are in proportion, including their hypotenuses, which means they have the same slope.
