  1. G.7ProvingTrianglesSimilar (AA~, SSS~, SAS~)

  2. Similar Triangles Two triangles are similar if they are the same shape. That means the vertices can be paired up so the angles are congruent. Size does not matter.

  3. AA Similarity (Angle-Angle or AA~) If 2 angles of one triangle are congruent to 2 angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar. Given: and Conclusion: by AA~

  4. SSS Similarity (Side-Side-Side or SSS~) If the lengths of the corresponding sides of 2 triangles are proportional, then the triangles are similar. Given: Conclusion: by SSS~

  5. 5 10 16 8 11 22 Example: SSS Similarity (Side-Side-Side) Given: Conclusion: By SSS ~

  6. SAS Similarity (Side-Angle-Side or SAS~) If the lengths of 2 sides of a triangle are proportional to the lengths of 2 corresponding sides of another triangle and the included angles are congruent, then the triangles are similar. Given: Conclusion: by SAS~

  13. Proving Triangles Similar Similarity is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive. Steps for proving triangles similar: 1. Mark the Given. 2. Mark … Reflexive (shared) Angles or Vertical Angles 3. Choose a Method. (AA~,SSS~, SAS~) Think about what you need for the chosen method and be sure to include those parts in the proof.
