Similar Triangles From the figure below: View Comments (5) Let ∠ACB be a; Since ∠EAF = 90, then ∠CAB= 90; ∠CED = 180-90-a = 90-a (angle sum of triangle = 180) ∠CBA = 180-90-a = 90-a (angle sum of triangle = 180) ∠FEA = 90-a (vertically opposite) ∠EFA = 180-(90-a) = 90+a (angle sum of triangle=180) ∠AED = 180-(90-a) = 90+a (supplementary) Proof for similarity between Δ DEA ||| Δ ADF; A = ∠EFA = ∠DEA A = ∠EDA = ∠EDA Thus, Δ DEA ||| Δ ADF Josh, please check on the angle EFA :) Angle EFA is 180 - ( 90 - a ) - 90 or a. lol. yup that's what i mean. hahah. i miscalculate it. Point D seems to be the midpoint of line CB. Thus: ∠EAD = a, therefore ∠EFA = ∠EAD Then, we can get: ∠FAD = 90+a; ∠AED = 180-(90-a) = 90+a (supplementary); ∠FAD =∠AED Proof for similarity between Δ DEA ||| Δ ADF; A = ∠FAD =∠AED A = ∠EDA = ∠EDA Thus, Δ DEA ||| Δ ADF :) uggh bener gaakk sih? Thanks ya both Joshua and Jonathan. Both are correct :) Check on my latest question / quiz after this :) Leave a Comment

Let ∠ACB be a;
Since ∠EAF = 90, then ∠CAB= 90;
∠CED = 180-90-a
= 90-a (angle sum of triangle = 180)
∠CBA = 180-90-a
= 90-a (angle sum of triangle = 180)
∠FEA = 90-a (vertically opposite)
∠EFA = 180-(90-a)
= 90+a (angle sum of triangle=180)
∠AED = 180-(90-a)
= 90+a (supplementary)
Proof for similarity between Δ DEA ||| Δ ADF;
A = ∠EFA = ∠DEA
A = ∠EDA = ∠EDA
Thus, Δ DEA ||| Δ ADF
Josh, please check on the angle EFA :)
Angle EFA is 180 - ( 90 - a ) - 90 or a.

Point D seems to be the midpoint of line CB. Thus:
∠EAD = a,
therefore ∠EFA = ∠EAD
Then, we can get:
∠FAD = 90+a;
∠AED = 180-(90-a)
= 90+a (supplementary);
∠FAD =∠AED
Proof for similarity between Δ DEA ||| Δ ADF;
A = ∠FAD =∠AED
A = ∠EDA = ∠EDA
Thus, Δ DEA ||| Δ ADF :)
