Lesson 4: Ratios in Right Triangles

  • All right triangles that contain the same acute angles are similar to each other

  • The ratios of corresponding side lengths are equal for all right triangles with the same acute angles

  • Right triangles are similar by the Angle-Angle Triangle Similarity Theorem

  • Complementary angles = two angles sum to 90 degrees
