8-3 Proving Triangles Similar
M11.C.1 2.9.11.B
Objectives:
1) To use and apply AA, SAS and SSS similarity
statements.
Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate (AA~)
If two angles of one triangle are
congruent to two angles of another
triangle, then the triangles are similar.
△TRS ~△PLM

Example (AA~)

Explain why the triangles are similar

What is the similarity statement?
Side-Angle-Side Similarity Theorem

If an angle of one triangle is congruent to
an angle of a second triangle, and the
sides including the two angles are
proportional, then the triangles are
similar.
Example

Are the triangles similar by (SAS~)?
Explain.
Side-Side-Side Similarity Theorem (SSS~)

If the corresponding sides of two triangles
are proportional, then the triangles are
similar.
Example: SSS~

Are the triangles similar using the SSS
Similarity Theorem?
Finding Lengths in Similar Triangles

Find DE and show triangles are similar.
