Parts of Similar Triangles Section 6-5
Proportional Perimeters Theorem • If 2 triangles are similar, then the perimeters are proportional to the measures of the corresponding sides.
The similarity ratio of ∆LMN to ∆QRS is Example: Using Ratios to Find Perimeters Given that ∆LMN~∆QRS, find the perimeter P of ∆QRS. So the ratio of the perimeters is also 13/9.1. The perimeter of ∆QRS is 25.2 cm. 13P = 36(9.1) P = 25.2
Example: ∆ABC ~ ∆DEF, BC = 4 mm, and EF = 12 mm. If P = 42 mm for ∆DEF, find the perimeter of ∆ABC. 12P = 42(4) P = 14 mm The perimeter of ∆ABC is 14 mm.
Example: Using the Triangle Angle Bisector Theorem Find PS and SR. x = 30
Example: Find AC and DC. y = 18 So DC = 9 and AC = 16.
