Consider two triangles Δ U V W and Δ X Y Z

If these are two triangles having vertices in the same order,

Then to prove →→ Δ U V W ~ Δ X Y Z, By S A S

We must show, the ratio of Corresponding sides are equivalent and angle between these two included corresponding sides are also equal.

Option 1 is correct, because ratios are equivalent, and ∠U≅∠X. As X is in the beginning of ΔX Y Z, Similarly U is in the beginning of Δ U V W.

Option 2 is correct, because ratios are equivalent, and ∠Y≅∠V. As Y is in the middle of ΔX Y Z, Similarly V is in the middle of Δ U V W.

Option 3 is not true, ratios are equivalent, but ∠W ≅ ∠X should be replaced by ∠W≅∠Z.

Option 4 is not true, because ratios are equivalent, and ∠U ≅ ∠Z should be replaced by ∠U≅∠X
