Lesson 6-2 Similar Polygons
Ohio Content Standards: Estimate, compute and solve problems involving real numbers, including ratio, proportion and percent, and explain solutions.
Ohio Content Standards: Demonstrate fluency in computations using real numbers.
Ohio Content Standards: Estimate, compute and solve problems involving rational numbers, including ratio, proportion and percent, and judge the reasonableness of solutions.
Ohio Content Standards: Use proportional reasoning and apply indirect measurement techniques, including right triangle trigonometry and properties of similar triangles, to solve problems involving measurements and rates.
Ohio Content Standards: Apply proportional reasoning to solve problems involving indirect measurements or rates.
Ohio Content Standards: Describe and apply the properties of similar and congruent figures; and justify conjectures involving similarity and congruence.
Ohio Content Standards: Make and test conjectures about characteristics and properties (e.g., sides, angles, symmetry) of two-dimensional figures and three-dimensional objects.
Ohio Content Standards: Use proportions in several forms to solve problems involving similar figures (part-to-part, part-to-whole, corresponding sides between figures).
Similar Polygons When polygons have the same shape but may be different in size.
Similar Polygons Two polygons are similar if their corresponding angles are congruent and the measures of their corresponding sides are proportional.
