Essential UnderstandingEssential Understanding You can use ratios to compare the perimeters and areas of similar figures Students will be able to find the perimeters and areas of similar figures
3
Perimeters and Areas of Similar Figures If the scale factor of two similar figures is a/b, then The ratio of their perimeters is a/b The ratio of their areas is a 2 /b 2
4
Finding RatiosFinding Ratios Two similar polygons have corresponding sides in the ratio 5:7 What is the ratio (larger to smaller) of their perimeters? What is the ratio (larger to smaller) of their areas?
5
Finding AreaFinding Area The scale factor of two similar parallelograms is ¾. The area of the larger parallelogram is 96 in 2. What is the area of the smaller parallelogram?
6
Finding AreaFinding Area The area of the smaller regular hexagon is about 127.3 ft 2. What is the best approximation for the area of the larger regular hexagon?
7
Applying AreaApplying Area The scale factor of the dimensions of two similar pieces of window glass is 3:5. The smaller piece costs $2.50. How much should the larger piece cost?
