7.4 Notes Similarity in Right Triangles
Warm-up:
Theorem 7-3
Geometric Mean
The length of the altitude of a right triangle is the geometric mean of the lengths of the segments of the hypotenuse.
Geometric Mean The altitude of the hypotenuse of a right triangle separates the hypotenuse so that the length of each leg of the triangle is the geometric mean of the length of the adjacent hypotenuse segment and the length of the hypotenuse.
Ratios in the Triple Triangle
Example Find the value of x and y.
