To write a similarity statement, start by identifying and drawing the similar shapes. See where the equal angles are and draw the shapes accordingly. Label all the angles. Write down all the congruent angles.
A similarity statement is a statement used in geometry to prove exactly why two shapes have the same shape and are in proportion. You can write one by labeling all the angles. Write down all the congruent angles (for example, angle ABC is congruent to angle DEF, angle BCA is congruent to angle EFD, etc.). Then, calculate all the lengths of the sides of the triangles and confirm that they are in proportion. After that, you are ready to write the similarity statement.
