Similarity and congruency SIMILARITY Similarity is the quality of being similar. It refers to the closeness of appearance between two or more objects. It is the relation of sharing properties. In mathematics figures that are of the same shape but not necessarily of the same size are known as similar figures. This means one figure could be an enlargement of the other. Enlarging a figure does not alter the angles. It does change the lengths of the sides but all the lengths change in the same ratio. ABC ∼ e.g. DEF means “is similar to” B E C 10cm 5cm F D A e.g. 1 Similarity and congruency Before you can learn this concept you need to get familiar to some words frequently used in this chapter. These include: Corresponding - similar especially in position or purpose; equivalent Ratio - the relationship between two numbers or quantities (usually expressed as a quotient) Proportion - the relation between things (or parts of things) with respect to their comparative quantity, magnitude, or degree Congruent - equilateral, equal, exactly the same (size, shape, etc.) Enlargement - expansion: the act of increasing (something) in size or volume or quantity or scope Theorem - an idea accepted as a demonstrable truth Postulate - Something assumed without proof as being self-evident or generally accepted Scale factor – reduced ratio of corresponding sides of two similar figures. SIMILAR POLYGONS Two polygons with the same shape are called similar polygons. A pair of similar polygons has the following special properties: Corresponding angles are equal. Corresponding sides are in the same proportion. *Both of the above properties must apply for two polygons to be similar. Illustration In figure 1 Quadrilateral ABCD ∼ quadrilateral PQRS. 15cm P A 5cm 5 6cm 6cm 2cm 2cm D B Q 5cm C S 15cm FIGURE 1 2 R Similarity and congruency This means ∠ A = ∠ P, ∠ B = ∠ Q, ∠ C = ∠ R, ∠ D = ∠ S ALSO AB = AD = BC = CD = 1 PQ PS QR RS 3 It is possible for a polygon to have one of the above facts true without having the other fact true. The following two examples show how that is possible. In Figure 2 , quadrilateral ABCD is not similar to quadrilateral WXYZ. A 5cm B W 2.5cm 120 ͦ 4cm 4cm 2cm 60 ͦ Z D 5cm X 60 ͦ 2 2cm 120 ͦ Y 2.5cm C Figure 2 Even though the ratios of corresponding sides are equal(5/2.5 = 4/2), corresponding angles are not equal (90° ≠ 120°, 90° ≠ 60°). In Figure 3 , quadrilateral FGHI is not similar to quadrilateral JKLM. F 5cm 3cm I G J 3cm 3cm 3cm 3 H 5cm M 3cm K 3cm L Figure 3 Even though corresponding angles are equal, the ratios of each pair of corresponding sides are not equal (3/3 ≠ 5/3). Example 1: Find the value of x, y and ∠B in the figure below. 3 Similarity and congruency 𝑥 78 ͦ y B 5cm 5.5cm 3cm 7cm angle B = 78 ͦ (corresponding angles are same) 3=5 3=y 7 𝑥 3𝑥 = 35 7 5.5 16.5 = 7y 𝑥 = 11.67cm y = 2.36cm Example 2 You have been asked to create a poster to advertise a field trip to see the Liberty Bell. You have a 3.5 inch by 5 inch photo that you want to enlarge. You want the enlargement to be 16 inches wide. How long will it be? 5’ 3.5’ 16’ 3.5 = 16 5 𝑥 3𝑥 = 80 𝑥 = 22.9’ SPECIAL FIGURES Some figures are always similar. Such figures include: circles, squares, equilateral triangles, regular pentagons, hexagons, octagons e.t.c. The reason for this is: Circles are always similar because they the same length of radius throughout the figure and so the corresponding lengths of two circles will always be proportional. 4 Similarity and congruency Squares, equilateral triangles and others are always similar because: their internal angles are always the same regardless of change in size ( e.g. squares have all angles of 90 ͦ ) the length of their sides are equal(e.g. square has 4 equal sides) and thus corresponding sides of two such figures are proportional. Example T A 12cm 5cm S B C R Both triangles are equilateral and so their internal angles are 60 ͦ. All 3 sides of the triangle ABC are 5cm while all 3 sides of the triangle RST are 12cm. Hence ABC ∼ RST AS all angles are equal (60 ͦ) and all sides have the same proportion (5/12) EXERCISE 1.1 (Ans on pg 22) 1. Are the two quadrilaterals similar? If so, state the similarity, and give the scale factor. 12 96 ͦ 115 ͦ 8 9 18 88 ͦ 6 115 ͦ 96 ͦ 14 88 ͦ 21 61 ͦ 12 5 61 ͦ Similarity and congruency 2.

Calculate the scale factor of the patio to the pool, and find the ratio of their perimeters. SIMILAR TRIANGLES In the case of similar triangles, it isn’t necessary to show that the corresponding angles are equal and corresponding sides are in the same proportion. Any ONE of the following theorems could apply. AA Similarity Postulate SAS Similarity Postulate SSS Similarity Postulate Angle-Angle Similarity - If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar. 6 Similarity and congruency Side-Side-Side Similarity - If all pairs of corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the triangles are similar. 30cm 13cm 5cm 12.5cm 32.5cm 12cm Side-Angle-Side Similarity - If one angle of a triangle is congruent to one angle of another triangle and the sides that include those angles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar. 4.5cm 3cm 2cm 3cm Example 1 State whether or not triangles ABC and XYZ are similar A 8cm C 4.5cm 4cm 6cm X 3cm 6cm B AB = 4 = 1.333 BC = 6 = 1.333 AND AC = 8 = 1.333 YZ XY 4.5 3 Y Z XZ 6 The three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio. (SSS similarity) Hence ABC ∼ XYZ Example 2 Show that ABC ~ PBR. Hence find x and y in the figure below. 7 Similarity and congruency P C 4cm 9cm 18cm B y 15cm A 𝑥 R Soln; from ∆𝑠 ABC and PBR we can say; <C = <R (Alternate Interior Angles), <A=<P (Alternate Interior Angles) and <ABC=<PBR (Vertically Opposite Angles) Therefore all angles are equal (AAA SIMILARITY) Hence triangle ABC ~ triangle PBR For similar triangles: AB = BC= AC PB BR PR AC= AB PR PB 9=y 15 18 y= 18 x 9 15 AC= BC PR BR 9=4 15 𝑥 𝑥 = 15 x 4 9 y= 10.8 cm 𝑥 = 6.67 cm Example 3 Sally wishes to find, with a little help from a 6ft pole, the height of an oak tree that stands on level ground. She walks away from the base of the tree, with the Sun directly behind her, until she reaches a point 100ft from its base. At this point she stands the pole on the ground and finds that the top of the shadow of the pole coincides with the top shadow of the tree at appoint a further 10ft away. How tall is the tree? 𝑥 6’ 100 ’ 10’ 8 Similarity and congruency 10 + 100 = 110 10 = 6 110 𝑥 length of larger triangle 𝑥 = 66’ 10𝑥 = 660 ∴ The tree is 66’ tall. THE INTERCEPT THEOREM “If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle it divides the other two sides in the same ratio.” This theorem is also known as Side-splitter theorem. Therefore similar triangles can be created by drawing a segment parallel to one side of a triangle in the triangle. Example A If in triangle ABC, PQ is parallel to BC, then z P Q AP = AQ PB QC B (Intercept theorem) C So if PB = 6cm, AQ = 3cm and QC = 4cm, AP = 3 6 4 4×AP = 3×6 4AP = 18 AP = 4.5 THE ANGLE-BISECTOR THEOREM If a ray bisects an angle of a triangle, then it divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the sides that formed the angle. Example Find 𝑥 in the figure below B 15cm C As BD bisects ABC, the above theorem can be applied. 12cm 13cm xcm 𝑥 = 12 13 15 D A 9 15𝑥 = 156 𝑥 = 10.4cm Similarity and congruency EXERCISE 1.2 (Ans on pg 23) 1.

Prove that triangles ABC and BDC are equiangular. 4. David is standing next to a very tall building. The building casts a shadow that is 180 feet long. David is 6 feet tall. His shadow is 10 feet long. How tall is the building? 5. AB is a ladder leaning against a vertical wall BC, with its foot on a level ground such that AC = 2m. XY is a straight pole placed so that it is vertical, with one end X touching the ladder and the other end Y resting on the horizontal ground. If AY = 0.5m and XY = 2m, find BC and hence find the length of the ladder. B 𝑥m X 2m A 0.5m Y 2m C 10 Similarity and congruency 6.

A closed pair of scissors is 9cm long, the pivot being 5cm from the points. The maximum that Paul can open the scissors using his thumb and first finger is 6cm. When he does this, what is the distance between the points? PERIMETER AND AREA OF SIMILAR FIGURES When two figures are similar the reduced ratio of the corresponding sides is known as the scale factor (linear scale factor). Consider the two similar rectangles below. Let the scale factor be k; a . . 1 2 ka b kb 11 Similarity and congruency Perimeter of rectangle 1 = 2a + 2b Perimeter of rectangle 2 = 2ka + 2kb perimeter 2 = 2 k (a + b) = k perimeter 1 2 (a + b) This shows an important general rule: “If two similar figures have a scale factor of k, then the ratio of their perimeters is also k.” In other words if the scale factor of a figure is a: b then the ratio of their perimeters will be a: b . Area of rectangle 1 = ab Area of rectangle 2 = ka*kb = k2 ab Area 2 = k2 ab = k2 Area 1 ab This shows another important general rule: “If two similar figures have a scale factor of k, then the ratio of their areas is k2.” if the scale factor of a figure is a: b then the ratio of their areas will be a2: b2. In other words Example 1 10cm 2 4cm 50cm The above triangles are similar. Use the information given to find they are of the smaller triangle. 2 50 = 10 𝑥 4 50 = 100 𝑥 16 100 × 𝑥 = 16×50 100 𝑥 = 800 𝑥 = 8cm Example 2 Two similar triangular buildings have been made on Manchester Avenue. The areas covered by these two buildings are 45 cm 2 and 80 cm 2. The sum of their perimeters is 35 cm. The field agent needs to know the perimeters of each building.

Example 1 3cm 12cm 2cm 8cm 5cm 3=2=5=1 12 8 20 4 20cm corresponding sides are in the same ratio hence the above cuboids are similar Example 2 The diagrams below represent 3 different sizes of cans used to fill petrol at a petrol pump. 80cm 100cm 140cm 48cm 60cm 84cm 15 Similarity and congruency a) Write down the ratio of i) their heights ii) their base radii.

Soln; a) i) 80: 100: 140 4: 5: 7 ii) 24: 30: 42 4: 5: 7 All 3 cans are similar because the ratio of the corresponding sides is the same/constant. (4: 5: 7) b) Capacity = 2 πrh capacity = 2 πrh = 2×π×24×80 = 2×π×30×100 = 3840 π = 6000 π capacity = 2 πrh = 2×π×42×140 =11760 π 3840: 6000: 11760 64: 100: 196 Yes, there is a relationship between (a) and (b) which is: 64: 100: 196 = 43: 53: 73 VOLUME AND SURFACE AREA OF 3-D FIGURES From the example given above we can conclude that “The ratio of the volumes of similar 3-d shapes is equal to the ratio of the cubes of the corresponding lengths.” If the scale factor of two objects is k then the ratio of their volumes is k3. Consider the two figures below 2cm 1cm A B 1cm 8cm 0.5cm 4cm Total Surface area of A = 2(2×8) + 2(8×1) + 2(1×2) = 32+16+4 = 52cm Total Surface area of B = 2(1×4) + 2(4×0.5) + 2(0.5×1) = 8+4+1 = 13cm 16 Similarity and congruency Surface area B = 13 = 1 Surface area A 52 4 1= 1 4 2 ratio of corresponding lengths = 1 2 2 *So if the scale factor of two objects is k then the ratio of their volumes is k2. ∴ We can also conclude that “The ratio of the surface areas of similar 3-d shapes is equal to the ratio of the squares of the corresponding lengths.” Example 1 Two similar spheres made of steel have weights of 64kg and 216kg respectively. If the radius of the larger sphere is 18cm, find the radius of the smaller sphere. The ratio of weights will be the same as the ratio of volumes. Ratio of volumes (k3) = 64 = 8 216 27 k3 = 8 27 k= 3 8 27 k =2 3 Radius of smaller sphere = 2 × 9 = 6cm 3 Example 2 A student is to make a scale model of a building. The building is 20m high and she decides to make the model 30cm high. a) Express, in its simplest form, the ratio of the height of the building to the height of the model. b) If the total surface area of the model is 6480cm2, find the total surface area of the building. c) If the volume of the building is 16,000m3, find the total volume of the model.

CONGRUENCE Two figures are congruent if one fits exactly on the other. They must be of the same size and the same shape and hence are sides and angles must be equal. The notation used to show one figure is congruent to another is ‘≃’. Two triangles are congruent if they satisfy any one of four conditions: Side-Angle-Side Congruency Theorem: If two sides and the included angle of one triangle equal the corresponding parts of the other, then the triangles are congruent. (SAS) B A Q C P R Angle-Angle-Side Congruency Theorem: If one side and two angles of one triangle equal the corresponding parts of the other, then the triangles are congruent. (AAS) 19 Similarity and congruency A P B Q C R Side-Side-Side Congruency Theorem: If three sides of one triangle equal the corresponding parts of the other, then the triangles are congruent. (SSS) C P Q R B A Hypotenuse Leg Congruency Theorem: If a right triangle has a leg and hypotenuse equal to the corresponding parts of the other triangle, then the triangles are congruent. (HL) OR (RHS) . Note: The following doesn’t prove that triangles are congruent: - If three angles in one triangle equal to 3 angles in the second triangle.(SSS) - two sides and an angle which doesn’t lie btw these sides in one triangle is equal to two sides and a similarly located angle in the second triangle. (SSA) Example 1 AC and BD are diameters of a circle with centre O. Prove that triangles AOB and COD are congruent.

BD bisects ∠ABC; BE and BF are equal. Show that triangles BED and BFD are congruent and hence that ED = FD. B E F D C A As BD bisects ∠ABC, and so ∠BED and ∠BCD are equal BD is a line shared by both triangles ∴ ∆𝑠 𝐵𝐸𝐷 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐵𝐹𝐷 are congruent as two sides and included angle are equal (SAS) ED is equal to FD because for two triangles to be congruent both must be of the same size and thus these two lengths will be equal.
