Proving Triangles are Similar Lesson 8-5
Content Objective • Apply SSS and SAS Similarity Theorems.
Language Objectives • State: • SSS Similarity Theorem • SAS Similarity Theorem
Recall • Definition of Similar Polygons • Scale Factor • AA Similarity Postulate
SSS Similarity Theorem • If the lengths of the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the triangles are similar. A AC = CB = BA ΔABC ~ ΔDEF DF FE ED D C F B E
SAS Similarity Theorem • If the angle of one triangle is congruent to an angle of a second triangle and the lengths of the sides including these angles are proportional, then the triangles are similar. A D <B <E and AB = BC ΔABC ~ ΔDEF DE EF C F B E
