4. 4-7 Similar Polygons How do I identify similar polygons and find the missing measures of similar polygons?

5. Important Vocabulary

6. Congruent – parts of two figures that have the same measure Scale Factor – what you would multiply the corresponding sides of one similar figure by to get a second similar figure

7. Questions:Notes: How do I identify similar polygons? Steps 1.Find the ratios between all of the corresponding sides of the two figures 2.Determine (using division) whether or not all of the ratios are equal 3.If the ratios are equal, the polygons are similar Example: 2 5 3 7.5 Beause the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal, the figures are similar.

8. Concept Check 1.Get into groups of 2 and get one WHITE BOARD and a DE marker 2.Determine whether the following two figures are similar. 3. Be prepared to share with the class. 4 5 7 8 10 15

9. Questions:Notes: How do I determine the scale factor between two similar figures? Steps 1.Divide a measure on the NEW figure by the corresponding measure on the OLD figure. 2.The result is the SCALE FACTOR. Example: A B 1 3
