Geometry Flashcards
1
Q
Similar Triangles
A
- triangles where the corresponding angles are congruent
- the sides are scaled by the same factor for every side
- the sides are not necessarily equal
2
Q
Congruent Triangles
A
triangles where all angles and all sidesareequal
3
Q
AA Similarity
A
- triangle similarity proven through sharing two equal angles
4
Q
SAS Similarity
A
- similarity proven through an equal angle shared by two sides of equal ratio
- if the two equal ratio sides do not share the equal angle it doesn’t prove similarity
5
Q
SSS Similarity
A
- similarity proven through equal ratios of all sides
- A/X = B/Y = C/Z
