  1. Lesson 8.5 Proving Triangles are Similar

  2. Lesson 8.5 Objectives • Prove triangles are similar using the SSS Similarity Theorem • Prove Triangles are similar using the SAS Similarity Theorem • Utilize properties of similar triangles

  3. 10 10 5 5 3 6 Theorem 8.2:Side-Side-Side Similarity • If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the triangles are similar. • Your job is to verify that all corresponding sides fit the same exact ratio!

  4. 10 5 3 6 Theorem 8.3:Side-Angle-Side Similarity • If an angle of one triangle is congruent to an angle of a second triangle and the lengths of the sides including these angles are proportional, then the triangles are similar. • Your task is to verify that two sides fit the same exact ratio and the angles between those two sides are congruent!

  5. Using Theorems8.2 and 8.3 • These theorems share the abbreviations with those from proving triangles congruent in chapter 4. • SSS • SAS • So you now must be more specific • SSS Congruence • SSS Similarity • SAS Congruence • SAS Similarity • You chose based on what are you trying to show? • Congruence • Similarity
