3/18/2015 8-3 D Similar & Congruent Figures

Slide 3

Similar figures- have the same shape but not necessarily the same size The measures of the corresponding angles are equal The ratios of the lengths of the corresponding sides are proportional

Slide 4

corresponding sides- matching sides of two or more polygons corresponding angles- matching angles

Slide 5

Example 1 111 y ___ 100 200 ____ = 200 111 = 100 y The two triangles are similar. Find the missing length y and the measure of D.

Slide 6

22,200 = 100y 22,200 100 ______ 100y 100 ____ = 222 mm = y Angle D is congruent to angle C, and m C = 70. m D = 70 The two triangles are similar. Find the missing length y and the measure of D.

Slide 7

Example 2 52 y ___ 50 100 ____ = 100 52 = 50 y A B 60 m120 m 50 m 100 m y 52 m 65 45 The two triangles are similar. Find the missing length y and the measure of B.

Slide 8

5,200 = 50y 5,200 50 _____ 50y 50 ___ = 104 m = y Angle B is congruent to angle A, and m A = 65. m B = 65 The two triangles are similar. Find the missing length y and the measure of B.

Slide 17

congruent figures- have the same shape and same size -the corresponding sides and corresponding angles are congruent.

Slide 18

Example 1 These figures are NOT congruent. Decide whether the figures in each pair are congruent. If not, explain.

Slide 19

Example 2 These figures are congruent.

Slide 20

Example 3 These figures are congruent.

Slide 21

Example 4 These figures are congruent.

Slide 22
