• I can use proportions to find
relationships using altitudes and
angle bisectors in triangles
Think about a triangle drawn on a piece of paper being placed in a
copy machine and either enlarged or reduced.
 The copy is similar to the original triangle.
Suppose you drew in special segments of a triangle, such as the
altitudes or angle bisectors on the original.
 When you enlarge or reduce that original triangle, all of
those segments are enlarged or reduced at the same rate.
Word
Definition
 A perpendicular segment from a
ALTITUDE
vertex to the line containing the
opposite side.
ANGLE
BISECTOR
 A segment whose endpoints are one
vertex of a triangle and the opposite
side.
