Domain - Similarity, Right Triangles, and Trigonometry

Cluster - Prove theorems involving similarity.

[GEO.G-SRT.B.4] - Prove theorems about triangles. Theorems include: a line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two proportionally, and conversely; the Pythagorean Theorem proved using triangle similarity.


Resources:


  • Pythagorean Theorem
    For any right triangle, the sum of the squares of the measures of the legs equals the square of the measure of the hypotenuse.

Predecessor Standards:

  • 8.G.B.6.a
    Understand the relationship among the sides of a right triangle.
  • 8.G.B.6.b
    Analyze and justify the Pythagorean Theorem and its converse using pictures, diagrams, narratives, or models.

Same Level Standards:

  • GEO.G-CO.C.10
    Prove theorems about triangles. Theorems include: measures of interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°; base angles of isosceles triangles are congruent, and conversely prove a triangle is isosceles; the segment joining midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half the length; the medians of a triangle meet at a point.
  • GEO.G-SRT.A.3
    Use the properties of similarity transformations to establish the Angle-Angle (AA) criterion for two triangles to be similar.
