1
Use properties of similar triangles to find segment lengths.
Objectives
Artists use mathematical techniques to make twodimensional paintings appear threedimensional. The invention of perspective was based on the observation that far away objects look smaller andcloser objects look larger.
Mathematical theorems like the Triangle Proportionality Theorem are important in making perspective drawings.

Substitute in the given values.
Cross Products Prop.2PN = 15
PN = 7.5 Divide both sides by 2.
Use the Triangle Proportionality Theorem.

Example 3: Art ApplicationSuppose that an artist decided to make a larger sketch of the trees. In the figure, if AB = 4.5 in., BC = 2.6 in., CD = 4.1 in., and KL = 4.9 in., find LM and MN to the nearest tenth of an inch.

Given
Check It Out! Example 3
2.4(LM) = 1.4(2.6)
LM ≈ 1.5 cm
2.4(MN) = 2.2(2.6)
MN ≈ 2.4 cm
The previous theorems and corollary lead to the following conclusion.
