    1) Definition (symbol ∾ )

    Two triangles are similar if corresponding angles are congruent, denoted CASTC, and corresponding sides are proportional, denoted CSSTP.

    Example 1

    41 ∠≅∠ ; 52 ∠≅∠ ; 63 ∠≅∠ and xr

    In general: Two figures are similar if they have the same shape, but they’re different in the size.

    In the 45-45 -90 triangle, the legs are opposite to the congruent angles. Thus, they are congruent. By

    the Pythagorean Theorem, we have the hypotenuse has the length equal to the product of 2 and the length of the leg.

  • 5) Example 5 (Bow waves) If the boat is at the point A, it produces a bow wave that radiates out in a circle with radius r. By the time the boat reaches the point B, the radius of the bow wave’s circle will radiate a distance of R (see the figure)

    Since the tangent is perpendicular to the radius at the tangent point, ΔABC is a right triangle.

    By theorem 4, BDBC ≅ . This implies AB is the angle bisector of CBD ( or angle θ.) Why?

    Also, the distance R = Vwt, where Vw is the speed of the wave and t is the time.

    Similarly, the distance AB = Vbt, where Vb is the speed of the boat and t is the time.

    By the definition of sine, we obtain

    𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠 �𝜃𝜃2

    � = 𝑅𝑅𝐴𝐴𝐴𝐴

    = 𝑉𝑉𝑤𝑤 𝑡𝑡𝑉𝑉𝑏𝑏 𝑡𝑡

    , or 𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠 �𝜃𝜃2

    � = 𝑉𝑉𝑤𝑤𝑉𝑉𝑏𝑏

    If a boat travels at a constant speed, it generates a bow wave whose speed is slower than the speed of the boat. If a speed boat travels at 45mph and the angle of the bow wave is 720, find the speed of the bow wave.

    Solution

    𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠 �720

    2� = 𝑉𝑉𝑤𝑤

    In 1958, Cerenkov, Frank, and Tamm received a Nobel Prize for their work based on the bow wave analysis. Since nuclear particles can be made to move faster than the speed of light (6.71x 108 mph), the three physicists was able to determine the speed of nuclear particle by measuring the light cone angle θ and using the formula
