Proportion
Ratio
•
If a and b are two quantities measured in the
same units, then the
ratio of a to b is a/b.
–
It can also be written as a:b.
•
•
A ratio is a fraction, so the denominator cannot be zero.
Ratios should always be written in simplified
form.

Simplifying Ratios
•
Not only should ratios be in simplified form, but they
must also be in the same units!
Example 1
–
12 cm/
4m
•
–
•
Make sure they units are the same before simplifying the
numbers!
12 cm/
4 m(100 cm)
= 12 cm/400 cm  3 cm/100 cm
Some info to keep in mind when changing units
–
–
–
–
–
–
100 cm = 1 m
1000 m = 1 km
12 in = 1 ft
3 ft = 1 yd
5280 ft = 1 mile
16 oz = 1 lb
Example 2
•
•
Sometimes you may be given a problem that states the ratios of
side lengths or angle measures.
The ratio of the measures of the angles in a triangle
are 1:2:3. Find the measures of all three angles.
–
You must set one of the angles equal to x and adjust the other
according to the ratio.

Proportion
•
An equation that has two ratios equal to each
other is called a proportion.
–
A proportion can be broken down into two parts.
•
Extremes
–
•
Which is the numerator of the first ratio and the denominator
of the second ratio
Means
–
Which is the denominator of the first and numerator of the
second.

Properties Of Proportions
•
Cross Product Property
–
The product of the
extremes equals the
product of the means.
•
Also known as crossmultiplying.
a

=

ad = bc
•
Reciprocal Property
–
Taking the reciprocal of
the entire proportion
creates an equivalent
proportion.

Solving Proportions
•
•
To solve a proportion, you must use the cross product property.
So multiply the extremes together and set them equal to the
means.

Lesson 8.3
Similar Polygons
Similarity of Polygons
•
Two polygons are similar when the following
two conditions exist
–
–
Corresponding angles are congruent
Correspondng sides are proportional
•
•
Means that all side fit the same ratio.
The symbol for similarity is
– ~
•
ABCD ~ EFGH
–
This is called a similarity statement.
Proportional Statements
•
Proportional statements are written by identifying all
ratios of corresponding sides of the polygons.
–
Assume that square ABCD  EFGH

Scale Factor
•
Since all the ratios should be equivalent to each other,
they form what is called the scale factor.
–
•
We represent scale factor with the letter k.
This is most easily found by find the ratio of one pair
of corresponding side lengths.
–
Be sure you know the polygons are similar.

Theorem 8.1:
Similar Perimeters
•
If two polygons are similar, then the ratio of
their perimeters is equal to the ratio of their
side lengths.
–
This means that if you can find the ratio of one pair
of corresponding sides, that is the same ratio for
the perimeters.
Lesson 8.4
Similar Triangles
Postulate 25:
Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate
•
If two angles of one triangle are congruent to
two angles of another triangle, then the two
triangles are similar.

Lesson 8.5
Proving Triangles are Similar
Theorem 8.2:
Side-Side-Side Similarity
•
If the corresponding sides of two triangles are
proportional, then the triangles are similar.
–
Your job is to verify that all corresponding sides fit the same
exact ratio!

Theorem 8.3:
Side-Angle-Side Similarity
•
If an angle of one triangle is congruent to an angle of a
second triangle and the lengths of the sides including
these angles are proportional, then the triangles are
similar.
–
Your task is to verify that two sides fit the same exact ratio
and the angles between those two sides are congruent!

Triangle Proportionality

Theorem 8.4:
•
Converse of Triangle Proportionality
–
If a line divides two sides
proportionally, then it is parallel to
the third side.
Triangle Proportionality
–
Theorem 8.5:
If a line parallel to one
side of a triangle
intersects the other two
sides, then it divides the
two sides proportionally.

Theorem 8.6:
Proportional Transversals
•
If three parallel lines intersect two
transversals, then they divide the transversals
proportionally.
Lesson 8.7
Dilations
Dilation
•
A dilation is a transformation with the following
properties
–
–
•
If point P is not at the center C, then the image P’ lies on
ray CP.
If point P is at the center, then P = P’.
A dilation is something that will increase or
decrease the size of the figure while still
maintaining similarity.

Scale Factor of a Dilation
•
The scale factor of a dilation is found by the
following
–
k = CP’/CP
•
•
k stands for scale factor
It is basically the distance from the center to the
image divided by the distance from the center to
the pre-image.

Reduction or Enlargement
•
•
A reduction is when the image
is smaller than the pre-image.
The scale factor will be a
number between 0 and 1.
–
0<k<1
•
•
An enlargement is when
the image is larger that
the pre-image.
The scale factor will be a
number greater than 1.

Scale Factor with Coordinates
Center at the Origin
•
When applying the scale factor to a set of
coordinates, simply distribute to both the x and
y values of each coordinate.
Example
–
Perform the following dilation for point P
•
k = 3, P(2,7)
–
P’(3•2,3•7)
» P’(6,21)
