First, understand the question

Do not start calculating until the given information and the required answer are clear.

Problem

△PQR\triangle PQR has angles 35∘,90∘,55∘.35^\circ,90^\circ,55^\circ. △STU\triangle STU has angles 90∘,35∘,55∘.90^\circ,35^\circ,55^\circ. Write the correct similarity statement.

What are we trying to do?

Match equal angles first, then write the two similar triangles in the correct corresponding order.
