Triangle GHI ~ Traingle LKJ and mG= 30, mH= 80 and mI= 70. What are the Measurements of angles J, K, And L?

2 answers

Since triangle GHI is similar to triangle LKJ (denoted as \( \triangle GHI \sim \triangle LKJ \)), the corresponding angles in the two triangles are equal.

Given:

  • \( m\angle G = 30^\circ \)
  • \( m\angle H = 80^\circ \)
  • \( m\angle I = 70^\circ \)

According to the property of similar triangles:

  • \( m\angle L = m\angle G = 30^\circ \)
  • \( m\angle K = m\angle H = 80^\circ \)
  • \( m\angle J = m\angle I = 70^\circ \)

Thus, the measurements of angles L, K, and J are:

  • \( m\angle L = 30^\circ \)
  • \( m\angle K = 80^\circ \)
  • \( m\angle J = 70^\circ \)
30 and 80 are wrong
