Similarity
Goal:
· Use SAS and SSS Similarity Theorems
to prove triangles similar.
SAS Similarity Theorem
· If an angle of one triangle is congruent to
an angle of an other triangle and the sides
including those angles are in proportion,
then the triangles are similar.
SSS Similarity Theorem
· If the sides of two triangles are in
proportion, then the triangles are similar.
Can these two triangles be proved similar? If so, what is the
similarity statement and how would you prove them similar?
