Triangle Proportionality Theorem (AKA The 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. Example 1.

Triangle Proportionality Theorem(AKA The 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
Example 2 Find the remaining lengths.
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 two other sides. B D A C
Example 1 Find RV and VT.
Example 2 Find AC and DC.
