Determine whatever each pair if figures is similar. If so, write the similarity statement and scale factor. If not, explain your reasoning.

Step 1
Given,

△ K L M

with angles

90^{\circ}, 48^{\circ} and 42^{\circ}

and sides KL=7.4, ML=11 and KM=8.2

△ W Y Z

with angles

90^{\circ}, 51^{\circ} and 39^{\circ}

and sides WY=6.4, YZ=4 and WZ=5
We have to find the similarity between the

△ K L M and △ W Y Z

and scale factor
Step 2
We know
In similar triangles , all the three angles are same
We have

△ K L M

with angles

90^{\circ}, 48^{\circ} and 42^{\circ}

and

△ W Y Z

with angles

90^{\circ}, 51^{\circ} and 39^{\circ}

So,
All the angles are not same .
Then,

△ K L M and △ W Y Z

are not similar.
