Question
### Transcription and Diagram Explanation for Educational Use #### Problem Statement Triangle \( DEF \) is similar to triangle \( ABC \). #### Diagram Description - **Triangle ABC**: - \( \angle A \) is labeled as 40°. - \( AB \) is the side adjacent to \( \angle A \). - \( BC \) is the base of the triangle, forming a right angle with \( AB \). - **Triangle DEF**: - This triangle is not labeled with any angles but is similar to triangle \( ABC \), suggesting that the corresponding angles are equal. #### Question What is the measure, in degrees, of \( \angle F \)? Explain how you know. #### Explanation Since triangle \( DEF \) is similar to triangle \( ABC \), the corresponding angles in similar triangles are equal. This means: - \( \angle F \) in triangle \( DEF \) is equal to \( \angle C \) in triangle \( ABC \). To find \( \angle F \): - The sum of angles in a triangle is always 180°. - Triangle \( ABC \) has a known angle of 40° (\( \angle A \)) and a right angle (\( \angle B \) as 90°), so: \[ \angle C = 180° - 90° - 40° = 50° \] Therefore, \( \angle F = 50° \). ### Conclusion The measure of \( \angle F \) is 50 degrees.
