GOAL 1 USING SIMILARITY THEOREMS 8.5 Proving Triangles are Similar THEOREMS Side-Side-Side Similarity Theorem Side-Angle-Side Similarity Theorem

Extra Example 2 Which of the following three triangles are similar?

Extra Example 3 In the figure AC = 6, AD = 10, BC = 9, and BE = 15. Describe how to prove that ΔACB is similar to ΔDCE.

Checkpoint In Exercises 1–3, draw the given triangles roughly to scale. If possible, name theorems that can be used to prove the triangles are similar.

GOAL 2 USING SIMILAR TRIANGLES IN REAL LIFE 8.5 Proving Triangles are Similar EXAMPLE 5

Extra Example 5 At an indoor climbing wall, a person whose eyes are 6 ft from the floor places a mirror on the floor 60 ft from the base of the wall. He then walks backwards 5 ft before seeing the top of the wall in the center of the mirror. Use similar triangles to estimate the height of this wall. EXAMPLE 6 J G H I F 6 ft 5 ft 60 ft

Extra Example 6 Use the given lengths to find the width LM of the river below. 42 ft LM P N Q 8 ft 5 ft

Checkpoint Refer to Example 5. Suppose another person whose eyes are 5.5 ft from the floor places the mirror 50 ft from the base of this wall. If the wall is 65 ft high, how far from the mirror will the person need to stand to see the top of the wall centered in the mirror? about 4.2 feet
