Step 1: Examine the given figure

Step 3: Locate the equal angles in the figure

NOTE: In Δ ABC and Δ AMP

∠ABC = ∠AMP (Right angle)

∠CAB = ∠PAM (Common angle)

Step 4: Prove that \triangle ABC and \triangle AMP are similar

NOTE: According to AAA theorem we can say \triangle ABC and \triangle AMP

are similar

Hence; Δ ABC ∼ Δ AMP proved (AAA criterion)
