Two polygons are similar. The perimeter of the smaller polygon is ___ feet and the ratio of the corresponding side lengths is ___. Find the perimeter of the other polygon.

perimeter = _____ ; ratio for x

2 angles congruent, sim

AA sim thm

Sketch the triangles using the given description. Then determine whether the two triangles can be similar.

Ratio all sides, angle congruent (depends on theorems)

angle 1 congruent and lengths prop, sim

SAS sim thm

corr side lengths two prop, sim

SSS sim thm

ray bisects angle, divides ops side into segments whose lengths are prop to other 2 sides

Triangle Angle Bisector Theorem

a perpendicular segment from a vertex to the line containing the opposite side

altitude

The polygons are similar. The area of one polygon is given. Find the area of the other polygon

area = ___ (divide ratio multiply)

2 polygons = similar, ratio of perimeters = ratios of corr side lengths

areas of similar polygons

show triangles are similar

break down theorem, ratio triangles

if polygons similar, then ratio of 2 corr lengths = to sale factor of similar polygons

corresponding lengths in similar polygons

Show that the triangles are similar and write a similarity statement.

find out if similar, ratio sides (names) and triangles

use the diagram to complete the statement

if sim, name, if =, number
