1 7-5 Proportions in Triangles

2 Side-Splitter Theorems
Side-Splitter Theorem: If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and intersects the other two sides, then it divides those sides proportionally. Corollary to the Side-Splitter Theorem: If three parallel lines intersect two transversals, then the segments intercepted on the transversals are proportional.

3 Using the Side-Splitter Theorem
What is the value of x?

4  What is the value of a?

5 Finding a Length Three campsites are shown. What is the length of Site A along the river?  What is the length of Site C along the road?

6 Angle Bisectors Triangle Angle Bisector Theorem: If a ray bisects an angle of a triangle, then it divides the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle.

7 Using the Triangle Angle Bisector Theorem
What is the value of x?

8  What is the value of y?
