Two triangles are similar if they have:
all their angles equal
corresponding sides are in the same ratio

C. All right triangles are similar.

Not all right triangles are similar. For two right triangles to be similar one triangle needs to be an enlarged version of the other and to have corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
