Front

What is the height of the building if the options are 74, 100, 104, 108?

Back

The height of the building is 108.

Front

Are the triangles in each pair similar?

Back

The triangles in pair C are similar.

Front

What similarity theorem is used to prove that triangles are similar?

Back

AA~ (Angle-Angle Similarity Theorem) is used to prove that triangles are similar.

Front

Using a proportion, find the height of the tree if the options are x = 0.0625 ft., x = 4 ft, x = 16 ft.

Back

The height of the tree is x = 16 ft.

Front

What does AA~ stand for in triangle similarity?

Back

AA~ stands for Angle-Angle similarity, which states that if two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle, the triangles are similar.

Front

What is the SAS similarity theorem?

Back

SAS similarity theorem states that if two sides of one triangle are proportional to two sides of another triangle and the included angles are equal, then the triangles are similar.

Front

What is the SSS similarity theorem?

Back

SSS similarity theorem states that if the three sides of one triangle are proportional to the three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.

Front

How do you determine if two triangles are similar using the AA criterion?

Back

To determine if two triangles are similar using the AA criterion, check if two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle.

Front

What is a proportion in mathematics?

Back

A proportion is an equation that states that two ratios are equal.

Front

If triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF, what can be said about their corresponding angles?

Back

The corresponding angles of triangle ABC and triangle DEF are equal.
