13.In triangle ABC and triangle DEF, the angle at A and the angle at D are both 40°, and the angle at B and the angle at E are both 70°. No side lengths are given. Write down whether the two triangles must be similar, with the reason.
(a)No, because the triangles may be different sizes
(b)Yes, by the SSS condition
(c)No, because no side lengths are given
(d)Yes, by the AA condition
14.A rectangle has vertices A(1, 1), B(4, 1), C(4, 5) and D(1, 5). Work out the perimeter of the rectangle.
