Yes. You can even have two triangles with two pairs of sides that are the SAME measure without the triangles being similar.

Find the measure of angle s if these triangles are similar?
We can't even begin to do that without seeing the picture.
What is the ratio of the corresponding sides of these triangles?
Without the triangles, no answer can be given.
What traingle don't have a right angle?
Triangles without right angles are:- Scalene triangles Obtuse triangles Isosceles triangles Equilateral triangles
What is a ratio of corresponding side lenghts are proportional?
It is an example of a statement that is presented as a question with minimum of effort. Unfortunately, the minimum effort makes the question meaningless. There is no context given. As a result there are times when the statement within the question would be true and others when it would be false. Without the context it is impossible to tell and so it is a statement with no value whatsoever.
It's possible to tessellate a plane with?
It is possible to tessellate a plane with squares, triangles, and hexagons. To tessellate something means to cover it with repeated use of a single shape, without gaps or overlapping.
How many triangles can you make with 4 cm 5 cm 6 cm and 7 cm without taking any of them apart?
Assuming you mean by combining 3 of the 4 given lengths. To make a triangle the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the third side; thus there are: Without repeats of length: 4 possible triangles. With repeats of length: The smallest length is 4cm with two of this length, the sum is 8cm which is greater than the longest length given (7cm), thus there are no impossible triangles with the given lengths. So there are 20 possible triangles.
How many triangles in a quadrilateral?
Infinitely many. Any triangle inside a quadrilateral can be divided into two without affecting the quadrilateral but increasing the number of triangles by 1. And then one of those triangles could be spilt into two and so on - without end.
How many triangles can you make out of a nonagon without intersecting?

How many triangles fit into a pentagon without overlapping?
it is 3
What is the use of concept of similar triangles in various real life situations?
Pretty much any engineering or architectural field will involve similar figures. When you're dealing with projects that require thousands of tons of materials worth millions of dollars, it wouldn't be wise to just go at it without a plan. Engineers and architects will usually create blueprints, schematics, 3D models, computer models, and many other things at a small scale first to make sure to account for everything possible. In addition, artists may sometimes use triangles to aid in the design their work.
Why do the trignometric functions stay the same if the triangle is made larger or smaller without changing the angle?
Because both triangles will be proportionally similar in size and so therefore retaining the same 3 interior angles.
How do you use formula of a triangle?
There are many formulae for triangles: Some formulae will calculate sides given angles or conversely. Some will calculate the area. It is not possible to say how you would use a formula without knowing what it is for!
