Determine whether the pair of figures is similar.
Justify your answer.
Q
The vertex angles are marked as 40º and 50º, so they
are not congruent.
Since both triangles are isosceles, the base angles in
each triangle are congruent. In the first triangle, the base
angles measure
and in the second
triangle, the base angles measure
Answer: None of the corresponding angles are
congruent, so the triangles are not similar.
Determine whether the pair of figures is similar.
Justify your answer.
T
Thus, all the corresponding angles are congruent.
Now determine whether corresponding sides are
proportional.
The ratios of the measures of the corresponding sides
are equal.
Answer: The ratio of the measures of the corresponding
sides are equal and the corresponding angles
are congruent, so
Determine whether the pair of figures is similar.
Justify your answer.
a.
Answer: Both triangles are isosceles with base angles
measuring 76º and vertex angles measuring 28º.
The ratio of the measures of the corresponding
sides are equal and the corresponding angles
are congruent,
Determine whether the pair of figures is similar.
Justify your answer.
b.
Answer: Only one pair of angles are congruent, so the
triangles are not similar.
An architect prepared a 12-inch model of a
skyscraper to look like a real 1100-foot building.
What is the scale factor of the model compared to
the real building?
Before finding the scale factor you must make sure that
both measurements use the same unit of measure.
1100(12) 13,200 inches
Answer: The ratio comparing the two heights is
The scale factor is
which means that the model is
of the real skyscraper.

A space shuttle is about 122 feet in length. The
Science Club plans to make a model of the space
shuttle with a length of 24 inches. What is the scale
factor of the model compared to the real space
shuttle?
