Angle Relationships, Similarity and Parallelograms Point Line Plane Lines that intersect to form right angles. What is the symbol for perpendicular? It looks like “”. Review your worksheets. What does a midpoint of a segment do? It makes two congruent segments. What does a bisector of an angle do? It makes two congruent angles. It means objects are the same shape and size. Set them equal. Vertical angles Linear Pair Complementary angles Supplementary angles Vertical …looks angles are congruent like a bow tie Linear pair angles have a sum of 180° Complementary Supplementary angles have a sum of 90°. angles have a sum of 180°. If the lines are parallel, then alternate interior angles are congruent. (Look for Z) If the lines are parallel, then corresponding angles are congruent. (Look for F) If the lines are parallel, then consecutive interior angles are supplementary. (C – supp) Reflexive ⦟CAT≅ ⦟𝐶𝐴𝑇 or AB = AB Symmetric If ⦟CAT≅ ⦟𝐷𝑂𝐺, 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 ⦟DOG≅ ⦟𝐶𝐴𝑇 or If 40 = x + 2, then x + 2 = 40 Transitive If ⦟CAT≅ ⦟𝐷𝑂𝐺, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 ⦟DOG≅ ⦟𝑅𝐴𝑇, then If ⦟CAT≅ ⦟𝑅𝐴𝑇. Polygons whose corresponding side lengths are proportional and corresponding angles are congruent. Ratio of the lengths of two corresponding sides (always reduce) If two polygons are similar then the ratio of their perimeters is equal to the ratios of the corresponding side lengths. AA~ SAS~ SSS~ If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar. If an angle of one triangle is congruent to an angle of another triangle and the lengths of the sides including these angles are proportional, then the triangles are similar. If the lengths of the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the triangles are similar. A line is parallel to the third side of a triangle if and only if it divides two sides of the triangle proportionally. 𝐵𝐷 𝐷𝐴 = 𝐵𝐸 𝐸𝐶 DE ⃒⃒AC iff If two similar solids have a scale factor of a:b, then the corresponding areas have a ratio of a²:b², and corresponding volumes have a ratio of 𝑎3 : 𝑏 3 . One pyramid has a height of 9 feet and the other has a height of 12 feet. If the two pyramids are similar, then What is the scale factor of the smaller to the larger? Answer: 3:4 What is the scale factor of the area of their bases? Answer: 9:16 The volume of the smaller is 28 meters cubed. What is the volume of the larger? Answer: 66.37 meters cubed If a triangle has two congruent sides, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent. Or Base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent. It is a quadrilateral with two pair of opposite sides parallel. Opposite sides are parallel. Opposite sides are congruent. Opposite angles are congruent. Consecutive angles are supplementary. Diagonals bisect each other. A quadrilateral with four right angles. What is another property of a rectangle? Answer: The diagonals are congruent. A quadrilateral with four congruent sides. What is a special property of a rhombus? Diagonals are perpendicular. A median is a segment from a vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side. At a point called the centroid From the vertex to the centroid of the triangle is 2/3 the length of the median. The segment that joins the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is ½ the length of the third side. What does x equal? 3 The length of the segment that joins the midpoints of the legs of a trapezoid is ½ the length of the sum of the bases.
