Write a test question for me that uses this image.

**Test Question:**

The triangles \( \triangle PQR \) and \( \triangle XYZ \) are shown in the image. Both triangles have their angles marked. Use the information given to answer the following:

1. Are the triangles \( \triangle PQR \) and \( \triangle XYZ \) similar? If so, explain why using a similarity criterion (e.g., AA, SSS, or SAS).  
   
2. If \( \triangle PQR \sim \triangle XYZ \), write the corresponding pairs of angles and sides that match.

3. Assume the side lengths of \( \triangle PQR \) are \( PQ = 5 \), \( QR = 6 \), and \( PR = 7 \). If \( \triangle XYZ \) is similar to \( \triangle PQR \) and the side \( XY = 10 \), find the lengths of \( YZ \) and \( XZ \).

4. Prove why the sum of the angles in each triangle equals 180°, using the given diagram.

5. Determine whether the orientation of the two triangles affects their similarity.
