  1. 7.2 Similar Polygons

  2. Similar Polygons • In geometry, two figures that have the same shape are called similar. • Two polygons are similar polygons if corresponding angles are congruent and corresponding side lengths are proportional. A C F G H E D B ABCD ~ FEGH

  3. R T 16 20 8 10 U S 12 Q P 15 • PRQ ~ STU • List all pairs of congruent angles • Write the ratios of the corresponding sides in a statement of proportionality • Check that the ratios of corresponding sides are equal

  4. Theorem 7.1 Perimeters of Similar Polygons • If two polygons are similar, then the ratio of their perimeters is equal to the ratio of their corresponding side lengths. A D E F C B IF ABC ~ DEF, then DE + EF + FD = DE = EF = FD AB + BC + CA AB BC CA
