Similar and Congruent Figures

What are similar polygons? Two polygons are similar if corresponding (matching) angles are congruent and the lengths of corresponding sides are proportional.

Congruent Figures In order to be congruent, two figures must be the same size and same shape. ~ =

Similar Figures Similar figures must be the same shape, but their sizes may be different. ~

Angles and Sides in Similar Polygons Angles ∠A ≅ ∠ E ∠B ≅ ∠ F ∠C ≅ ∠ G Δ ABC ~ Δ EFG A BC E F G Sides AB ~ EF AC ~ EG BC ~ FG

Are these figures similar and/or congruent and why?

You can find the missing length of a side in a pair of similar figures, by using proportions 6 7 ΔRST ~ ΔUVW R S T U V W x ft. 6 ft. 35 ft. 7 ft. 35 = x x = 30 feet

Solve for x. x in. x in. 40 in. 30 in.. 40 = 12 x = 9 inches

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth. 4 x 12 in. 4 in. 20 in. x in.. 20 = 12 x = 6.7 inches

Solve for x m. 7 m. x 25 m. x = 14 x = 50 meters

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth. 15 x 17 in. x 35 in. 15 in. 17 = 35 x = 7.3 inches

Determine the missing sides of the triangle 39 in 24 in 33 in ? in 8 in ? in

Determine the length of the missing side Two rectangles are similar. The first is 4 in. wide and 15 in. long. The second is 9 in. wide. Find the length of the second rectangle.

Determine the length of the missing side Two rectangles are similar. One is 5 cm by 12 cm. The longer side of the second rectangle is 8 cm greater than twice the shorter side. Find its length and width.

Similar Figures Which of the following is not a characteristic of similar figures? A. Proportional sides B. Equal angle measurements C. Same shape D. Congruent side lengths
