Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

By the theorem (SAS) of similarity,

"If two sides of one triangle are proportional to the corresponding sides of another triangle and the included angles in both the triangles are equal then both the triangles are similar."

It's given in the figure attached,

[tex]\frac{QR}{TR}=\frac{PR}{RS}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{16}=\frac{9}{18}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

And m∠QRP ≅ m∠TRS

Therefore, corresponding sides of ΔQRP and ΔTRS will be similar.

Option (2) will be the answer.
