Unit 7: Similarity – Grade 9 Name:__________________
Sec 7.1: Scale Diagrams and enlargements
A diagram that is an enlargement or a reduction of another diagram is called a scale diagram.
The scale factor is the relationship between the matching lengths on the two diagrams.
To find the scale factor of a scale diagram, we divide: k=lengt hon scalediagramlengt hof original
k=9cm3cm
=3
Note-the units must be the same on the original and scale diagram- if not, you must convert one to make them the same- scale factors do not have units
Example #3
A photo has dimensions 10cm by 15cm.
Two enlargements are to be made with each scale factor below. Find the dimensions of each enlargement.
A) scale factor 4
B) scale factor 134

Sec 7.2: Scale Diagrams and Reduction
A scale diagram can be smaller than the original diagram. This type of scale diagram is called a reduction. A reduction has a scale factor that is less than 1.
Example # 2A top view of a patio table is 105cm by 165cm. A reduction is to be drawn with scale
factor 15 . Find the dimensions of the reduction.
Proportion
An equation, such as 34=68 , which states that 2 ratios are equal.
Two diagrams are 'proportional' if all sides are multiplied or divided by the same number.
Example #3Which diagram has sides that are
proportional to the original?

A Polygon is a closed shape with straight sides. Exactly 2 sides meet at a vertex.
When one polygon is an enlargement or reduction of another polygon, we say the polygons are similar.
When 2 polygons are similar:
matching angles are equal AND
matching sides are proportional
Sec 7.3: Similar Triangles
Two triangles are similar if they have the same shape, but different size.
In similar triangles:
matching angles are equal
matching sides are proportional
When writing proportions for corresponding sides, make sure to keep the same triangle on top in each fraction.

Sec 7.5: Reflections and Lines of Symmetry
line symmetry
a figure is divided into 2 congruent parts using a line of symmetry (mirror image)
one half of the figure is reflected exactly onto the other half
a figure may have more than one line of symmetry
The line of symmetry (also called line of reflection) can be:
horizontal
vertical
oblique
The number of lines of symmetry that can be drawn in a regular polygon is equal to the number of vertices.
Sec 7.6: Rotational Symmetry Symmetry
Rotational Symmetry
A figure has rotational symmetry if it can be turned around its center to match itself in less than a 360o turn.
The number of times in one complete turn that a figure matches itself is referred to as:
the order of rotational symmetry
(triangle has an order of 3)
OR
the degree of rotational symmetry
(triangle has a degree of 3)
In regular polygons the number of sides is the same as the order of rotational symmetry.
Angle of Rotation Symmetry
the minimum angle required for a shape to rotate and coincide with itself:
360 °Order of Rotation
What if you know the angle of rotation symmetry and you are asked to find the order of rotational symmetry ?
Examples:
What is the order of rotational symmetry for each angle of rotation symmetry?
A) 90o
B) 120o
