Similar Figures and Congruent Figures

What is the similarity statement for the triangle pair? (use the arc marks to help write corresponding parts in the same order)

• ΔXYZ~ΔNEW

• ΔXZY~ΔNWE

• ΔZYX~ΔENW

• ΔYZX~ΔNWE

Are the two figures similar? (check all ratios to see if they are equal)

• yes

• no

What side corresponds with AB? 

• BC

• FE

• DE

• FD

Are these figures similar?

• yes

• no

• i don't know

• not enough information

Tell whether the two figures are congruent.

• Yes, same size and same shape

• No, same shape but different sizes

• No, different size and different shapes

Matching sides are called

• Corresponding Sides

• Corresponding Angles

• The Same

• Congruent Sides

• A
• B
• C
• D

Which statement is always true about two congruent polygons?

• Corresponding sides are always congruent.

• Corresponding angles are always right angles.

• Corresponding sides are always parallel.

• They are the same shape but different size.

Remember order matters. Which of the following is true?

• ∆FGH ≅ ∆VHW

• ∆HFG ≅ ∆HWV

• ∆HGF ≅ ∆VHW
