Similar Polygons

Corresponding Angles are congruent. Corresponding Sides are proportional. Use the symbol “~” for similar.

To show that two polygons are similar, you must prove both things: angles congruent, sides proportional.

Scale Factor

If two polygons are similar, the ratio of two corresponding sides is called the scale factor.

April 21, 2023 Geometry 8.3 Similar Polygons 12

Scale Factor

The scale factor of JKL to QSR is 10/5 or 2/1.

The scale factor of QSR to JKL is 5/10 or 1/2.

Theorem 8.1

If two polygons are similar, then the ratio of their perimeters is equal to the ratios of their corresponding side lengths and is equal to the similarity ratio.

Summary

Two polygons are similar if they have the same shape, but a different size.

If polygons are similar corresponding angles are congruent, and corresponding sides are proportional.

The ratio of any two corresponding sides is the scale factor.

The ratio of the perimeters is equal to the ratio of two corresponding sides.
