Side-Splitter Theorems
Side-Splitter Theorem: If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and intersects the other two sides, then it divides those sides proportionally. Corollary to the Side-Splitter Theorem: If three parallel lines intersect two transversals, then the segments intercepted on the transversals are proportional.

Finding a Length Three campsites are shown. What is the length of Site A along the river? What is the length of Site C along the road?
