Answer 1

To find the similarity statement between the two triangles based on their angles, we can check the corresponding angles.

For triangle ABC:
- \( m\angle A = 48^\circ \)
- \( m\angle B = 17^\circ \)
- \( m\angle C = 115^\circ \)

For triangle HIJ:
- \( m\angle H = 17^\circ \)
- \( m\angle I = 48^\circ \)
- \( m\angle J = 115^\circ \)

Now, let's align the angles between the two triangles based on their measures:

- \( m\angle A (48^\circ) \) corresponds to \( m\angle I (48^\circ) \)
- \( m\angle B (17^\circ) \) corresponds to \( m\angle H (17^\circ) \)
- \( m\angle C (115^\circ) \) corresponds to \( m\angle J (115^\circ) \)

Based on the matching of angles, we can conclude:

- \( \triangle ABC \sim \triangle HIJ \)

Thus, the correct similarity statement is:

**△ABC∼△HIJ** (triangle A B C tilde triangle H I J)
