transformations. Determine whether two figures are similar using
similarity transformations. Explain.

Students use similarity to solve a variety of real-

world problems. The general process is this: First,
show that two figures are similar; then, use the
fact that corresponding sides are proportional to
find an unknown side length.

Have students bring in magazines and
newspapers, and challenge them to find sets of
similar figures. Discuss the use of similar figures
in art and design, and the visual effects that such
designs create.

similarity. Architects and contractors use the properties of
 similar figures to find any unknown dimensions,
like the proper height of a triangular roof. They
can use a bevel angle tool to check that the angles
of construction are congruent to the angles in their
plans.
Small Group Activity
Have students work in small groups and draw
diagrams to illustrate each of these statements: all
squares are similar; all rectangles are not similar;
if two polygons are congruent, they are also
similar; all right triangles are not similar.
