TODAY IN GEOMETRY… WARM UP: SRF and Rationalizing the Denominator Learning Target: 6.3 Use properties of similar polygons to solve proportions. Independent Practice Ch.6 Quiz – NEXT WEEK!
SIMILAR POLYGONS: two polygons that have congruent corresponding angles and side lengths are proportional.
SCALE FACTOR: the ratio of the lengths of two corresponding sides of two similar polygons. Check that the ratios of the corresponding side lengths are equal.
EXAMPLE: Determine whether the polygons are similar. If they are, write a similarity statement and find the scale factor.
PRACTICE: Determine whether the polygons are similar. If they are, write a similarity statement, find the scale factor and solve for x.
PRACTICE: The scale factor of Figure 1 to Figure 2 is 7:10. Complete the table. A A B B CC D D E E 1 2
