Use similar triangles to solve real-life problems such as finding the height of a climbing wall.

Using Similarity Theorems

In this lesson, you will study 2 alternate ways of proving that two triangles are similar: Side-Side-Side Similarity Theorem and the Side-Angle-Side Similarity Theorem. The first theorem is proved in Example 1 and you are asked to prove the second in Exercise 31.

Objectives

perspective drawing.

Identifying Dilations

In chapter 7, you studied rigid transformations, in which the image and preimage of a figure are congruent. In this lesson, you will study a type of nonrigid transformation called a dilation, in which the image and preimage are similar.

What is it?

A dilation with center C and a scale factor k is a transformation that maps every point P in the plane to a point P’ so that the following properties are true.

1. If P is not the center point C, then the image point P’ lies on CP. The scale factor k is a positive number such that k = and k ≠1.

2. If P is the center point C, then P = P’.CP’CP

Draw a dilation of rectangle ABCD with A(2, 2), B(6, 2), C(6, 4), and D(2, 4). Use the origin as the center and use a scale factor of ½. How does the perimeter of the preimage compare to the perimeter of the image?

C(6, 4) C’(3, 2)

D(2, 4) D’(1, 2)

Solution continued

From the graph, you can see that the preimage has a perimeter of 12 and the image has a perimeter of 6. A preimage and its image after a dilation are similar figures. Therefore, the ratio of perimeters of a preimage and its image is equal to the scale factor of the dilation.

Using Dilations in Real Life—p.508

Finding Scale Factor: Shadow puppets have been used in many countries for hundreds of years. A flat figure is held between a light and a screen. The audience on the other side of the screen sees the puppet’s shadow. The shadow is a dilation, or enlargement of the shadow puppet. When looking at a cross sectional view, ∆LCP ~ ∆LSH.

Shadow Puppet continued

The shadow puppet shown is 12 inches tall. (CP in the diagram). Find the height of the shadow, SH, for each distance from the screen. In each case, by what percent is the shadow larger than the puppet?

A. LC = LP = 59 in.; LS = LH = 74 in. B. LC = LP = 66 in.; LS = LH = 74 in.

Notice that as the puppet moves closer to the screen, the shadow height increase.
