Lesson 4.3A
Similarity
T.2.G.1 Apply congruence (SSS …) and similarity (AA …) correspondences and properties
of figures to find missing parts of geometric figures and provide logical justification
M.3.G.4 Use (given similar geometric objects) proportional reasoning to solve practical
problems (including scale drawings)
M.3.G.5 Use properties of parallel lines and proportional reasoning to find the lengths of
segments
CGT.5.G.5 Draw and interpret the results of transformations and successive
transformations on figures in the coordinate plane
translations
reflections
rotations (90˚, 180˚, clockwise and counterclockwise about the origin)
dilations (scale factor)
Two polygons are similar if:
1. Corresponding angles are congruent
2. Corresponding sides are
proportional
Similarity Ratio

corresponding sides of similar triangles
