Perimeter and Area of Similar Figures Section 11.3
The Concept • Thus far in this chapter we’ve discussed how to find the area of various figures • Today we’re going to revisit a topic from chapter 6, similarity, and see it’s implications on the topic of area
If we remember from chapter 6, the concept of similarity allows us to use a proportion to solve for unknown sides, as long as the two objects are similar Similarity 15 15 x 20 16 Do we remember if this works with perimeter 10’
We have a way to find the areas of similar polygons as well Theorem 11.7 If two polygons are similar with the lengths of corresponding sides in the ratio of a:b, then the ratio of their areas is a2:b2 Similarity of Area How does this work? Choose a polygon that we have a formula for the area for and let’s look at Problem #30 on page 742
