Vocabulary
similar
corresponding sides
corresponding angles
Similar figures have the same shape, but not necessarily the
same size.
Corresponding sides of two figures are in the same relative
position, and corresponding angles are in the same relative
position. Two figures are similar if the lengths of corresponding
sides are proportional and the corresponding angles have equal
measures.

Reading Math
A is read as “angle A.” ∆ABC is read as “triangle ABC.”
“∆ABC ~∆EFG” is read as “triangle ABC is similar to triangle
EFG.”
Additional Example 1: Identifying Similar Figures
Which rectangles are similar?
Since the three figures are all rectangles, all the angles are
right angles. So the corresponding angles are congruent.
Additional Example 1 Continued
Compare the ratios of corresponding sides to see if they are equal.

20 = 20
width of rectangle J
width of rectangle K
The ratios are equal. Rectangle J is similar to rectangle K. The
notation J ~ K shows similarity.

The ratios are not equal. Rectangle J is not similar to
rectangle L. Therefore, rectangle K is not similar to rectangle
L.

The ratios are not equal. Rectangle A is not similar to rectangle C.
Therefore, rectangle B is not similar to rectangle C.
Additional Example 2: Finding Missing Measures in
Similar Figures
A picture 10 in. tall and 14 in. wide is to be scaled to 1.5 in. tall
to be displayed on a Web page. How wide should the picture be
on the Web page for the two pictures to be similar?
Set up a proportion. Let w be the width of the picture on the Web page.
width of a picture
width on Web page
14 ∙ 1.5 = w ∙ 10

Find the cross products.
Divide both sides by 10.
2.1 = w
The picture on the Web page should be 2.1 in. wide.

A painting 40 in. long and 56 in. wide is to be scaled to 10 in.
long to be displayed on a poster. How wide should the
painting be on the poster for the two pictures to be similar?
Set up a proportion. Let w be the width of the painting on the Poster.

Divide both sides by 40.
14 = w
The painting displayed on the poster should be 14 in. long.
Additional Example 3: Business Application
A T-shirt design includes an isosceles triangle with side lengths
4.5 in, 4.5 in., and 6 in. An advertisement shows an enlarged
version of the triangle with two sides that are each 3 ft. long.
What is the length of the third side of the triangle in the
advertisement?
