Today’s Agenda Proving Triangles Similar Similarity/Congruence Theorems/Postulates Thales Announcements Quiz next class

Triangle Congruence vs. Similarity If two triangles are congruent, then… Corresponding angles are congruent Corresponding side lengths are congruent If two triangles are similar, then… Corresponding angles are congruent Corresponding side lengths are proportional

Toolbox Triangle Congruence SSS SAS ASA AAS HL isosceles equilateral properties

Tools of Triangle Similarity Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate: (aka third angles theorem) If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the third angles are congruent.

Tools of Triangle Similarity SAS If an angle of one triangle is congruent to the angle of another triangle, and the sides containing the angle are proportional, then the triangles are similar. SAS

Tools of Triangle Similarity Side-Side-Side If corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the triangles are similar. SSS

Example 1 Why are the triangles similar? Write a similarity statement.
