• I can use proportions to find
relationships using altitudes and
angle bisectors in triangles
Think about a triangle drawn on a piece of paper being placed in a
copy machine and either enlarged or reduced.
The copy is similar to the original triangle.
Suppose you drew in special segments of a triangle, such as the
altitudes or angle bisectors on the original.
When you enlarge or reduce that original triangle, all of
those segments are enlarged or reduced at the same rate.
Word
Definition
A perpendicular segment from a
ALTITUDE
vertex to the line containing the
opposite side.
ANGLE
BISECTOR
A segment whose endpoints are one
vertex of a triangle and the opposite
side.

THEOREM:
If two triangles are similar, then the
measures of the corresponding
proportional to
altitudes are _________________
