1 Check it out! 1 1.6.2: Applying Similarity Using the Angle-Angle (AA) Criterion

2 The Statue of Liberty, a gift to the United States from France in 1886, stands 93 meters tall. A replica of the famous statue is 7.75 meters. 1.What is the scale factor comparing the height of the replica to the actual height of the Statue of Liberty? 2.The height of the base of the Statue of Liberty is approximately 46.5 meters. What is the height of the base of the Statue of Liberty replica? 2 1.6.2: Applying Similarity Using the Angle-Angle (AA) Criterion

3 1.What is the scale factor comparing the height of the replica to the actual height of the Statue of Liberty? Create a ratio comparing the height of the replica to the actual height of the statue. The ratio comparing the two heights is. The scale factor is. 3 1.6.2: Applying Similarity Using the Angle-Angle (AA) Criterion

4 2.The height of the base of the Statue of Liberty is approximately 46.5 meters. What is the height of the base of the Statue of Liberty replica? Write a proportion to find the height of the replica’s base. The height of the base of the Statue of Liberty replica is 3.875 meters. 4 1.6.2: Applying Similarity Using the Angle-Angle (AA) Criterion
