Draggable itemCorresponding Item
similar
the value we mulitply to dilate a figure
isometric
when the scale factor is between 0 and 1
SAS Similarity Postulate
when the scale factor is greater than 1
AA Similarity Postulate
same shape, but different size
corresponding parts
same shape and same size
congruent
when the scale factor is equal to 1
reduction
having the same position
scale factor
If two corresponding angles of one triangle are equal to two corresponding angles of another triangle, then the two triangles are similar.
SSS Similarity Postulate
If three corresponding sides of one triangle are proportional to three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are similar.
~
If two corresponding sides are proportional and one included angle is congruent, then the triangles are similar.
