Today’s subject is:
Proportions and Similar Figures
OBJECTIVES FOR THIS LESSON:
Each student will:
1- Use proportions to determine if two figures are similar.
2-Use proportions to make similar figures.
3-Use proportions to find the length of corresponding sides of similar figures.
Matching sides of two or more polygons are called corresponding sides, and matching angles are called corresponding angles.

Similar figures have the same shape, but not necessarily the same size. Similar figures have corresponding sides and corresponding angles.
The symbol ~ means “is similar to.” ABC ~ QRS.

If two figures are similar, then their corresponding angles are congruent, and the lengths of the corresponding sides are proportional.

To find out if triangles are similar, determine whether the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are proportional. If the ratios are proportional, then the corresponding angles must have equal measures.
Similar figures have two properties:1. The corresponding angles have
equal measures.2. The lengths of the corresponding
sides are in proportion.
In figures with four or more sides, it is possible for the corresponding side lengths to be proportional and the figures to have different shapes.
To find out if these figures are similar, first check that their corresponding angles have equal measures.

When you know two figures are similar, you can find the measure of a missing side by setting up a proportion.
