Compare and contrast the Angle Angle Similanty Postulate, the Side Side Side Similarity Theorem and the Side Angle

Mathematics
1 answer:
lorasvet [3.4K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The similarities are

1) Two triangles are similar when they meet either the (Angle Angle) AA, (Side Side Side) SSS or (Side Angle Side) SAS criteria

2) When two triangles meet either of the above similarity criteria they automatically meet the other similarity criteria

3) The ratio of their equivalent sides are equal such that when ΔABC is similar to ΔDCE we have;

AB/DC = AC/DE = BC/CE

The observed differences are

1) Triangles that meet the SAS and SSS Similarity Theorem criteria can be said to be congruent, that is they have both the same side sizes and angle sizes while triangles that meet only the AA Similarity Postulate criteria may or may not be congruent

2) The number of possible triangles formed by the SAS or SSS Similarity Theorem criteria is only one while the number of possible triangles formed by the AA Similarity Postulate criteria is infinite

3) A triangle that meets either the SAS or SSS Similarity Theorem criteria also meets the AA Similarity Postulate criteria

4) A triangle that meets either the AA Similarity Postulate criteria does not necessarily meet the AA Similarity Postulate criteria.

Step-by-step explanation:

The similarity postulates are;

The Angle Angle Similarity Postulate also known as AA

The Side Side Side Similarity Theorem also known as SSS

The Side Angle Side Similarity Theorem also known as SAS

There are 10 boys trying out for the track team. Truman and Ryan are the two fastest runners. If the coach randomly picks two bo
vichka [17]
10 kids total

picking Truman would be 1 out of 10 or 1/10

then there would be 9 kids left so picking Ryan would be 1 out of 9 or 1/9

the probability of picking both would be 1/10 * 1/9 = 1/90
