4. Ratios and Proportions

5. There are many uses of ratios and proportions
There are many uses of ratios and proportions. We use them in map reading, making scale drawings and models, solving problems.

6. The most recognizable use of ratios and proportions is drawing models and plans for construction. Scales must be used to approximate what the actual object will be like.

7. A ratio is a comparison of two quantities by division
A ratio is a comparison of two quantities by division. In the rectangles below, the ratio of shaded area to unshaded area is 1:2, 2:4, 3:6, and 4:8. All the rectangles have equivalent shaded areas. Ratios that make the same comparison are equivalent ratios.

8. Ratio A comparison of two quantities using division
3 ways to write a ratio:
a to b
a : b
a/b

9. Proportion An equation stating that two ratios are equal
Example:
Cross products: means and extremes
a and d = extremes
b and c = means
ad = bc

15. Similar Polygons Similar polygons have:
Congruent corresponding angles
Proportional corresponding sides
Scale factor: the ratio of corresponding sides
Polygon ABCDE ~ Polygon LMNOP A L B E M P
Ex: N O C D

16. For Polygons to be Similar corresponding angles must be congruent, and corresponding sides must be proportional (in other words the sides must have lengths that form equivalent ratios)

17. Congruent figures have the same size and shape
Congruent figures have the same size and shape. Similar figures have the same shape but not necessarily the same size. The two figures below are similar. They have the same shape but not the same size.

18. Let’s look at the two triangles we looked at earlier to see if they are similar. Are the corresponding angles in the two triangles congruent? Are the corresponding sides proportional? (Do they form equivalent ratios)

19. Just as we solved for variables in earlier proportions, we can solve for variables to find unknown sides in similar figures. Set up the corresponding sides as a proportion and then solve for x.
