What to Focus On

  • Similarity needs both equal angles and proportional sides.
  • The symbol ~ means is similar to.
  • Same shape does not always mean same size.
  • Parallel line in a triangle gives proportional division of the two sides.
  • The converse helps prove that a line is parallel.
  • The correct matching ratios must be used.
  • Angle bisector divides the opposite side proportionally.
  • The sides containing the bisected angle decide the ratio.
  • A common mistake is choosing the wrong sides for the ratio.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

If two triangles have one equal angle, they are similar.

If corresponding angles are equal, the triangles are similar even when sides are not proportional.

In the Basic Proportionality Theorem, any side ratios can be used to test whether a line is parallel.
