Erin draws two triangles. Two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent. Select each statement

that is true for all such pairs of triangles.

A. A sequence of rigid motions carries one triangle onto the other.

B. A sequence of rigid motions and dilations carries one triangle onto the other.

C. The two triangles are similar because the triangles satisfy the Angle-Angle criterion.

D. The two triangles are congruent because the triangles satisfy the Angle-Angle criterion.

E. All pairs of corresponding angles are congruent because triangles must have an angle sum of 180°.

F. All pairs of corresponding sides are congruent because of the proportionality of corresponding side

lengths.
