4.6 – How Can I Use Equivalent Ratios?__Triangle Similarity and Congruence
By looking at side ratios and at angles, you are now able to determine whether two figures are similar. But how can you tell if two shapes are the same shape and the same size? In this lesson you will examine properties that guarantee that shapes are exact replicas of one another.

4.41 – MORE THAN SIMILARExamine the triangles. a. Are these triangles similar? How do you know? Use a flowchart to organize your explanation.

b. Cameron says, "These triangles aren't just similar – they're congruent!" Is Cameron correct? What special value in your flowchart indicates that the triangles are congruent?
Similar with side ratio of 1.

c. Write a conjecture (in "If...,then..." form) that explains how you know when two shapes are similar.
"If two shapes are ____________ with a
side ratio of ________, then the two shapes
are _____________."

d. Cameron wanted to write a statement to convey that these two triangles are congruent. He started with "∆CAB...", but then got stuck because he did not know the symbol for congruence. Now that you know the symbol for congruence, complete Cameron's statement for him.

c. Derek wants to find general shortcuts that can help determine if triangles are congruent. To help, he draws the diagram at right to show the relationship between the triangles in part (a). If two triangles have the relationship shown in the diagram, do they have to be congruent? How do you know?
yes

4.45 – ARE THERE OTHERS?Derek wonders, "What other types of information can determine that two triangles are congruent?" Your Task: Examine the pairs of triangles below to decide what other types of information force triangles to be congruent. Notice that since no measurements are given in the diagrams, you are considering the general cases of each type of pairing. For each pair of triangles below that you can prove are congruent, come up with a shortcut name to use for now on.
