In this lesson, you will learn two new methods to show that two triangles are similar. O 7.2 ide-ide-ide imilarity heorem () ords If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the triangles are similar. ymbols If, then. 1 se the imilarity heorem etermine whether the triangles are similar. If they are similar, write a similarity statement and find the scale factor of riangle to riangle. olution ind the ratios of the corresponding sides. 1 2 Q Q 1 2 ll three ratios are equal. o, the corresponding sides of the triangles are proportional. y the imilarity heorem, Q. 1 he scale factor of riangle to riangle is howing riangles are imilar: and 7
