Formulas and Key Relations

1. Similar Objects and Similar Polygons

Two polygons are similar only if corresponding angles are equal and corresponding sides are proportional.

~

2. Basic Proportionality Theorem

AD/DB = AE/EC

3. Angle Bisector Theorem

BD/DC = AB/AC

4. Criteria for Similarity of Triangles

If corresponding angles of two triangles are equal, the triangles are similar.

If corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, the triangles are similar.

If one angle of a triangle equals one angle of another triangle and the sides containing these angles are proportional, the triangles are similar.

If △ABC ~ △DEF, then ∠A = ∠D, ∠B = ∠E, ∠C = ∠F and AB/DE = BC/EF = CA/FD.

Basic Proportionality Theorem and Its Converse

In triangle ABC, if DE is parallel to BC, then AD/DB = AE/EC.

Angle Bisector Theorem

If AD bisects angle A in triangle ABC, then BD/DC = AB/AC.
