GeometrySemester2InstructionalMaterials ‐ 2013‐2014 Geometry Semester 2 Instructional Materials for the WCSD Math Common Finals The Instructional Materials are for student and teacher use and are aligned to the Math Common Final blueprint for this course. When used as test practice, success on the Instructional Materials does not guarantee success on the district math common final. Students can use these Instructional Materials to become familiar with the format and language used on the district common finals. Familiarity with standards vocabulary and interaction with the types of problems included in the Instructional Materials can result in less anxiety on the part of the students. Teachers can use the Instructional Materials in conjunction with the course guides to ensure that instruction and content is aligned with what will be assessed. The Instructional Materials are not representative of the depth or full range of learning that should occur in the classroom Note from Earl. Many of the solutions in this document use techniques presented in the Geometry Handbook, which is available on the www.mathguy.us website. If you have trouble following any of the techniques used, try looking in the handbook for pages that deal with the issue you are struggling with. I solve the problems in this sample test using the quickest method available in most cases. Occasionally, I also make comments about some of the math involved in an effort to enhance your understanding of what is going on in the problem. You may have learned different techniques in your classroom. Use whichever techniques work for you. Finally, if there is a conflict between the content of this document and what you have learned in class, your teacher should be the primary source for how any problem should be solved. 1 | P a g e GeometrySemester2InstructionalMaterials ‐ MultipleChoice:Identifythechoicethatbestcompletesthestatementoranswersthe question.Figuresarenotnecessarilydrawntoscale. 1.

B. 1 C. 2 D. 3 To determine the scale factor of a dilation from the origin, pick corresponding points on the two figures and divide the ‐ and ‐values of the image by those of the pre‐image. If the two values that result are the same, you have most likely determined the scale factor without error. I have selected Points 1, 4 and ′ 3, 12 for this purpose. 3 1 12 4 2 | P a g e GeometrySemester2InstructionalMaterials ‐ Since the calculated scale factors are both , I can conclude with confidence that AnswerD is correct. 3.

To help with this problem, let’s assign some letters to the vertices of the two triangles. ~∆ by following the angle congruences from angle to angle Then, we note that ∆ (∠ ≅ ∠ ; ∠ ≅ ∠ ; ∠ ≅ ∠ ). is the measure of side sides, we have: 9 6 12 ⇒ 108 , so we want it in our proportion. Then, using corresponding 6 ⇒ AnswerA The following page contains information about the similarity theorems from the Geometry Handbook available at www.mathguy.us/BySubject/Geometry.php. 3 | P a g e GeometrySemester2InstructionalMaterials ‐ Geometry Similar Triangles The following theorems present conditions under which triangles are similar. Side‐Angle‐Side (SAS) Similarity SAS similarity requires the proportionality of two sides and the congruence of the angle between those sides. Note that there is no such thing as SSA similarity; the congruent angle must be between the two proportional sides. Side‐Side‐Side (SSS) Similarity SSS similarity requires the proportionality of all three sides. If all of the sides are proportional, then all of the angles must be congruent. AA similarity requires the congruence of two angles and the side between those angles. Angle‐‐Angle (AA) Similarity Similar Triangle Parts In similar triangles, Corresponding sides are proportional. Corresponding angles are congruent. Establishing the proper names for similar triangles is crucial to line up corresponding vertices. In the picture above, we can say: ∆ ∆ ~∆ ~∆ or∆ or∆ ~∆ ~∆ or∆ or∆ ~∆ ~∆ or All of these are correct because they match corresponding parts in the naming. Each of these similarities implies the following relationships between parts of the two triangles: ∠ ≅ ∠ and∠ ≅ ∠ and∠ ≅ ∠ 4 | P a g e GeometrySemester2InstructionalMaterials ‐ 5.

Note the angle congruences that result from the parallel lines: ∠ ≅ ∠ and ∠ ≅ ∠ Then, we note that ∆ ~∆ from the AA Similarity Theorem. Then, using corresponding sides, we have the following proportion: 16 4 8 4 ⇒ 80 5 16 Finally, we want to determine: AB 32 ⇒ 112 4 8 4∙ 7 8 16 ⇒ 7 . AnswerD 6. Two triangles are similar and the ratio of each pair of corresponding sides is 2: 1 . Which statement regarding the two triangles is not true? A. Their areas have a ratio of 4: 1 B. The scale factor is a ratio of 2: 1 C. Their perimeters have a ratio of 2: 1 D. Their corresponding angles have a ratio of 2: 1 Some thoughts: If the ratio of side lengths is : in a pair of similar figures. Then: The measures of the angles in the two figures are the same. The ratio of any one‐dimensional measurements is : . The ratio of any two‐dimensional measurements (e.g., areas) is : The ratio of any three‐dimensional measurements (e.g., volumes) is : Relating these rules to this problem, we note that the scale factor is one‐dimensional, so A, B, and C are all true. D is false because the angle measures in the triangles are the same. AnswerD 5 | P a g e GeometrySemester2InstructionalMaterials ‐ 7. What is the value of A. 39 B. 54 C. 63 D. 90 ?

Which statement is true and why? with center and radius A. Circle will be inscribed in ∆ bisectors of ∆ . because point is the intersection of two angle B. Circle will be circumscribed about ∆ angle bisectors of ∆ . because point is the intersection of two C. Circle will be circumscribed about ∆ perpendicular bisectors of sides of ∆ . because point is the intersection of two D. Circle will be inscribed in ∆ because point perpendicular bisectors of sides of ∆ . is the intersection of two The center of the circle (O) in this problem is the intersection of angle bisectors of the triangle. This point of intersection is called the incenter of the triangle. The incenter is also the center of the circle inscribed in the triangle. The key words in the paragraph above are “angle bisectors” and “inscribed.” These are the words in AnswerA. The following page contains information regarding other centers of triangles with which the student should be familiar. The page is from the Geometry Handbook available at: www.mathguy.us/BySubject/Geometry.php. 32 | P a g e GeometrySemester2InstructionalMaterials ‐ Geometry Centers of Triangles The following are all points which can be considered the center of a triangle. Centroid (Medians) The centroid is the intersection of the three medians of a triangle. A median is a line segment drawn from a vertex to the midpoint of the line opposite the vertex. The centroid is located 2/3 of the way from a vertex to the opposite side. That is, the distance from a vertex to the centroid is double the length from the centroid to the midpoint of the opposite line. The medians of a triangle create 6 inner triangles of equal area. Orthocenter (Altitudes) The orthocenter is the intersection of the three altitudes of a triangle. An altitude is a line segment drawn from a vertex to a point on the opposite side (extended, if necessary) that is perpendicular to that side. In an acute triangle, the orthocenter is inside the triangle. In a right triangle, the orthocenter is the right angle vertex. In an obtuse triangle, the orthocenter is outside the triangle. Circumcenter (Perpendicular Bisectors) The circumcenter is the intersection of the perpendicular bisectors of the three sides of the triangle. A perpendicular bisector is a line which both bisects the side and is perpendicular to the side. The circumcenter is also the center of the circle circumscribed about the triangle. In an acute triangle, the circumcenter is inside the triangle. In a right triangle, the circumcenter is the midpoint of the hypotenuse. In an obtuse triangle, the circumcenter is outside the triangle. Euler Line: Interestingly, the centroid, orthocenter and circumcenter of a triangle are collinear (i.e., lie on the same line, which is called the Euler Line). Incenter (Angle Bisectors) The incenter is the intersection of the angle bisectors of the three angles of the triangle. An angle bisector cuts an angle into two congruent angles, each of which is half the measure of the original angle. The incenter is also the center of the circle inscribed in the triangle. 33 | P a g e GeometrySemester2InstructionalMaterials ‐ 49. Find the angle measures of .
