9.1 – Similar Right Triangles
Theorem 9.1: If the altitude is drawn to the
hypotenuse of a right triangle, then the two triangles
formed are similar to the original triangle and to
each other.

Theorem 9.2 (Geo mean altitude): When the altitude
is drawn to the hypotenuse of a right triangle, the
length of the altitude is the geometric mean between
the segments of the hypotenuse.

Theorem 9.3 (Geo mean legs): When the altitude is

is the geometric mean between the hypotenuse and
the segment of the hypotenuse that is adjacent to
that leg.

9.2 – Pythagorean Theorem
The Pythagorean Theorem: In a right triangle, the
square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the
squares of the legs.

Remember, small side with
small angle.
Common Sense: Small to big, you multiply (make bigger)
Big to small, you divide (make smaller)
For 30 – 60 – 90, find the smallest side first (Draw arrow to locate)

The ideal angle of elevation for a roof for effectiveness
and economy is 22 degrees. If the width of the house is
40 feet, and the roof forms an isosceles triangle on top,
how tall should the roof be?
• DJ is at the top of a right triangular block of
stone. The face of the stone is 50 paces long.
The angle of depression from the top of the
stone to the ground is 40 degrees (assume DJ’s
eyes are at his feet). How tall is the triangular
block?
