Similar Quadrilaterals
How to tell if QUADRILATERALS are
similar?
• How did we know if triangles were similar?
– Corresponding angles are congruent
– Corresponding sides are proportional
• What does a proportion look like?
– Two fractions set equal to each other
• Ex:
2
4
=
1
2
or
𝑥
7
=
2
14
• How do we solve proportions
– Cross Multiplying
Are the following pairs similar?
1. Rectangles:
Angles?
Sides?
2. Parallelograms:
Angles?
Sides?
Are the following pairs similar?
3. Trapezoids:
Angles?
Sides?
Scale Factor
• What is a scale factor?
– The number you multiply the small sides by to get
the large sides.
