Similarity

This document discusses similarity of figures in geometry. It begins by stating the objectives of learning to illustrate the properties of similar triangles, including that corresponding angles are congruent and corresponding sides are proportional. It then shows several examples of similar and congruent figures, explaining that similar figures have the same shape but not necessarily the same size, while congruent figures have the same shape and size. The key aspects of similarity are defined, such as the symbol ~ used to denote similarity and the similarity ratio. The document concludes by providing examples of finding missing sides and scale factors of similar figures.

The façade of the National Museum


is approximately 120 meters long and
45 meters wide. Make a scale
drawing of the base of the building
using a scale of 1 cm : 15 m. What
will be the dimensions of your
drawing?
