Warm Up • State 3 ways to determine triangle similarity. • 1. AA Similarity Postulate • 2. SAS Similarity Theorem • 2. SSS Similarity Theorem
Side Splitting Theorem • A line parallel to one side of the triangle divides the other two sides proportionally.
Two-Transversal Proportionality Corollary • Three or more parallel lines divide two intersecting transversals proportionally.
Examples . . . • Solve for x.
Triangle Angle Bisector Theorem • An angle bisector of a triangle divides the opposite side into two segments whose lengths are proportional to the lengths of the other two sides.
