Are Two Figures Similar?
Step1: Set up all corresponding sides into ratios(fractions).
Step2: Reduce all ratios. Step3: If all ratios reduce to the same fraction, then the two figures are similar. If all ratios do not reduce to the same fraction, then the two figures are not similar.

3/6 = 1/2 4/8 = 1/2 5/10 = 1/2 Yes, they are similar because all 3 sets of ratios of corresponding sides reduce to the same fraction.

Finding A Missing Side Length in Similar
Figures Step 1: Set up one set of corresponding sides into a ratio and reduce.
Step 2: That reduced ratio is the scale factor. Set that scale factor = to the ratio of corresponding sides where you don’t know the measure of one side. Cross multiply and divide to solve for x.

Finding Area of Similar FiguresFinding Area of Similar Figures
Step 1: Find the scale factor, represented by a lower case r. Give both smaller and larger scale factors. Ex. 2/1 and 1/2
Step 2: Square the scale factor to find the relationship between the areas. If the scale factor is a ratio, square both numerator and denominator. Give both the larger and smaller r2. Ex. 4/1 and 1/4

*If you are looking for the area of the larger figure, then multiply area of smaller figure by larger r2.
*If you are looking for the area of the smaller figure, then multiply area of larger figure by smaller r2.
Step 4: Find the area of the other figure.
*If you are looking for the area of the larger figure, then multiply area of smaller figure by larger r2.
*If you are looking for the area of the smaller figure, then multiply area of larger figure by smaller r2.

Rectangle ABCD ~ Rectangle QRST. BC = 4 cm and RS = 12 cm. The area of QRST is 180 cm2. What is the area of ABCD?
Step 1: Find r. r = 4/12 = 1/3 or 3/1Step 2. Find r2. r2 = (1/3)2 = 1/9 or 9/1Step 3: Find area of QRST. 180 cm2
Step 4: Multiply larger area in step 3 by smaller r2, which is 1/9. 180 x 1/9 = 20 cm2
