UNIT 3.2 REP-TILE TRIANGLES
Tessellate means to fit together exactly.
SOME TESSELLATIONS
THREE DIFFERENT TRIANGLES Sketch and make several copies of
each of the following shapes: a right triangle
an isosceles triangle
a scalene triangle
THREE DIFFERENT TRIANGLESA. Which of these triangles fit together to
make a larger triangle that is similar to the original? Make a sketch to show how the copies fit together.
All three triangles are rep-tiles. They can all be fit together to make a larger triangle that is similar to the original.
THREE DIFFERENT TRIANGLESB. Look at your sketches from
Question A. 1. What is the scale factor
from each original triangle to each larger triangle?2. How is the perimeter of the new triangle related to the perimeter of the original?3. How is the area of the new triangle related to the area of the original?
EXTEND THE REP-TILES
DIVIDING TRIANGLES
DIVIDING TRIANGLES To divide a triangle into four or small similar
triangles: Find the midpoints of each of its sides. Draw a straight line connecting each of the
midpoints to form the smaller triangles.
Important VocabularyMidpoint – A point that divides a line segment into two segments of equal length.

UNIT 3.3 SCALE FACTORS AND SIMILAR SHAPES
For parts (1)-(3), draw a rectangle similar to rectangle A that fits the given description. Find the base and height of each new rectangle.
1. The scale factor from rectangle A to the new rectangle is 2.5.
2. The area of the new rectangle is ¼ the area of rectangle A.
3. The perimeter of the new rectangle is three times the perimeter of rectangle A.
The new rectangle is 10 by 20.
The new rectangle is 2 by 4.The scale factor is ½.
Sketch this rectangle on your paper.
UNIT 3.3 SCALE FACTORS AND SIMILAR SHAPES
