4. Using Ratios The ratio of the side lengths of a quadrilateral is 2:3:5:7, and its perimeter is 85 feet. What is the length of the longest side? We want to let the lengths of the sides be 2x, 3x, 5x and 7x. Then we can add them together to get the perimeter. 2x + 3x + 5x + 7x = 85 17x = 85 x = 5 The longest side is 7x or 35 ft.

5. Proportions A proportion is an equation stating that two ratios are equal. In the proportion,the values a and d are the extremes. The values b and c are the means. When a proportion is written as a:b = c:d, the extremes are in the first and last position. The means are in the two middle positions. The product of the extremes ad and the product of the means bc are called the cross products.

6. Cross Products Property In a proportion, if and b and d ≠ 0, then ad = bc. ad = bc Example: solve this proportion. 5·63 = y·45 → 315 = 45y y = 7

11. Similarity Figures that are similar ( ∼ ) have the same shape but not necessarily the same size. Two polygons are similar polygons if and only if their corresponding angles are congruent and their corresponding side lengths are proportional. A similarity ratio is the ratio of the lengths of the corresponding sides of two similar polygons.

12. Similar Figures When we write a similarity statement, ΔABC ∼ ΔLMN for two triangles, we always write each corresponding part in the same order. For example: If, then ∠ A corresponds to ∠ L, ∠ B corresponds to ∠ M, and ∠ C corresponds to ∠ N. Also, corresponds to ___ corresponds to ___ and corresponds to ___. A B C L M N

50. Scale Drawing A scale drawing represents an object as smaller than or larger than its actual size. The drawing’s scale is the ratio of any length in the drawing to the corresponding actual length. For example, on a map with a scale of 1 cm: 1500 m, one centimeter on the map represents 1500 meters in actual distance To convert a distance on the map to actual distance, use a proportion:

53. Areas and Perimeters Therefore, we see that when we find the similarity ratio, we can use that ratio to find the ratio of the perimeters and the ratio of the areas. The ratio of the perimeter is the same as the similarity ratio. The ratio of the area is the square of the similarity ratio.
