Standard • G-SRT 2 Given two figures, use the definition of similarity in terms of similarity transformations to decide if they are similar; explain using similarity transformations the meaning of similarity for triangles as the equality of all corresponding pairs of angles and the proportionality of all corresponding pairs of sides.
Objective • Using prior knowledge of proportions and angles and given knowledge about similar triangles students will determine if triangles are similar.
Similar Figures Definition: Two figures are similar if • their corresponding sides are proportional, and • their corresponding angles are equal. Similar figureshave the same shape but possibly different sizes. Similarity Statement: ΔABC ~ ΔDEF Notes: ~ => “is similar to” The order of the letters matters! A D E F B C
1) Corresponding angles are congruent: 2) Corresponding sides are proportional: A D E F B C = = The fractions all reduce to a common similarity ratio.
