  1. To Start: 18 Points • Determine if the polygons are similar. If so, write the similarity statement and scale factor. • Identify the congruent angles. • Compare the ratios 4 12 T J U K 2 6 W M 8 8 24 24 V L

  2. Chapter 7: Similarity Section 7.3: Proving Triangles Congruent

  3. Postulate 7.1 AA∼

  4. Using AA∼ Postulate • Are the two triangles similar? Why? • ∠R≅∠V Both are 45o • ∠RSW≅∠VSB Vertical ∠’s So, ∆RSW∼∆VSB AA∼ Postulate

  5. Using AA∼ Postulate • Are the two triangles similar? Why? • ∠L≅∠R Both are 70o • ∠K=180-70-30=80 • ∠P=180-85-70=25 So, ∆RSW and ∆VSB are not Similar

  6. Using AA∼ Postulate YES NO

  7. Theorem 7-1 SAS∼

  8. Verifying Triangle Similarity • Are the triangles similar? If so, write the similarity statement. ∠K≅∠K Reflexive So, ∆KLP∼∆KMN by SAS∼

  9. Theorem 7-2 SSS∼

  10. Verifying Triangle Similarity • Are the triangles similar? If so, write the similarity statement. • All three ratios are equal, so, ∆STU ∼∆VSB by the SSS∼ Theorem.

  11. Using SAS∼ and SSS∼ YES! ∆ABC ∼∆EFG by SSS∼ YES! ∆ALW ∼∆ACE by SAS∼
