Proving Side-Side-Side Similarity
Begin:
 Step 1: Create a triangle with the follow side lengths: 4 inches, 6 inches, and 8 inches.
 Step 2: Create a second triangle using a scale factor of 2.5.
4
 Step 3: Create a third triangle using a scale factor of 5.
 Step 4: Determine if these three triangles are similar by measuring the angles.
List the length of your sides and angles:

Proving Side-Angle-Side Similarity
Begin:
 Step 1: Create a 55° angle. Its two sides should be 3.5 and 5 inches long. Enclose your
angle to make a triangle.
 Step 2: Create a second 55° angle. Use a scale factor of ¾ to find the length of your
sides. After creating these sides, enclose your angle to make a triangle.
 Step 3: Create a third 55° angle. Use a scale factor of 2 to find the length of your sides.
After creating these sides enclose your angle to make a triangle.
