Lesson 5-3: Proving Triangles Similar 1
Lesson 6-3Similar Triangles
The following must occur for triangles to be similar, but there are other short cuts to prove if triangles are similar (AA, SSS, SAS) :
1) The angles must be congruent 2) Sides must be proportional

Lesson 5-3: Proving Triangles Similar 5
Similarity is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive.
1. Mark the Given . . . and what it implies.2. Mark … Shared Angles or Vertical Angles3. Choose a Method. (AA, SSS , SAS)
Think about what you need for the chosen method and be sure to include those parts in the proof.
