Answer:

Option B Yes by AAA

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and its corresponding angles are congruent

so

[tex]\frac{HM}{MK}=\frac{GM}{MJ}[/tex]

substitute the values and verify

[tex]\frac{8}{12}=\frac{6}{9}[/tex]

simplify

[tex]\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2}{3}[/tex] -------> is true

therefore

The triangles are similar by AAA------> the three angles are congruent
