2 Altitude: Ex: Construct an altitude from each vertex: Altitude

3 A B B D Similar Right Triangles Similar Right Triangles: Ex: ∆ ~ ∆ ~ ∆ A B D C

4 Practice ∆ABC is split by altitude AD into two smaller right triangles. – Draw ∆ABD and ∆DBC – Write a similarity statement for the three right triangles A 12 5 B13 C

5 Side Proportions Side Proportions: Short = ShortMid = Mid Long LongLongLong, etc.

6 What is the length of each unknown side? Practice ABAB C C BD 6 8 x y 17 8

7 Complete each proportion: AC = BCAB = yAC = y BC xBCx x BD Practice ABAB C C BD
