Similarity

1 / 25

26 Terms

1

Similarity

Objects that have the same shape includes: proportional sides and same angles have the _____.

New cards
2

Dilation

A transformation that grows/shrinks a figure, but keep the same overall shape (preserve angles).

New cards
3

Scale factor

When the scale is less than 1, the image is smaller than the pre-image; when the scale is more than 1 then the image is larger than the pre-image. This is the _____.

New cards
4

Similarity transformation

The shape of the figure is retained during dilation.

New cards
5

Colinear

Lies on the same straight line or in a single line.

New cards
6

Rigid transformation

A transformation that preseves length.

New cards
7

Angle-Angle

When two triangles have 2 congruent pairs of angles.

New cards
8

Side-Angle-Side

When two sides are proportional and the included angles are congruent.

New cards
9

Side-Side-Side

When three sides of one triangle are proportional to three sides of another triangle.

New cards
10

Pythagorean theorem

The square of two legs in a triangle equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

New cards
11

Triangle proportionality theorem

A line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides of the triangle proportionality.

New cards
12

Triangle bisector theorem

The angle bisector of one angle of a triangle divides the opposite side of the triangle into segments proportional to the lengths of the other two sides of the triangles.
