Equality of Cross Products
|
For any number's a and c and any nonzero numbers b and d, a/b=c/d if and only if ad=bc.
|
|
Definition of Similar Polygons
|
Two polygons are similar iff their corresponding angles are congruent and the measures of their corresponding sides are proportional.
|
|
AA Similarity Theorem
(Angle-Angle) |
If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.
|
|
SSS Similarity Theorem
(Side-Side-Side) |
If the measures of the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the triangles are similar.
|
|
SAS Similarity Theorem
(Side-Angle-Side) |
If the measures of two sides of a triangle are proportional to the measures of two corresponding sides of another triangle and the included angles are congruent, then the triangles are similar.
|
|
Similarity of Triangles is:
|
Reflexive, Symmetric and Transitive.
|
|
Triangle Proportionality Theorem
|
If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and intersects the other two sides in two distince points, then it separates these sides into segments of proportional lengths.
|
|
Converse of the Triangle Proportionality Theorem
|
If a line intersects two sides of a triangle and separates the sides into corresponding segments of proportional lengths, then the line is parallel to the third side.
|
|
Triangle Midpoint Theorem
|
A segment whose endpoints are the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side of the triangle, and its length is one-half the length of the third side.
|
|
Transversal Proportionallity Corollary A
|
If three or more parallel lines intersect two transversals, then they cut off the transversals proportionally.
|
|
Transversal Proportionallity Corollary B
|
If three or more parallel lines cut off congruent segments on one transversal, then they cut off congruent segments on every transversal.
