Ohio Content Standards:
Describe and apply the properties of similar and congruent figures; and justify conjectures involving similarity and congruence.
Ohio Content Standards:
Make and test conjectures about characteristics and properties (e.g., sides, angles, symmetry) of two-dimensional figures and three-dimensional objects.
Ohio Content Standards:
Use proportions in several forms to solve problems involving similar figures (part-to-part, part-to-whole, corresponding sides between figures).
Ohio Content Standards:
Use proportional reasoning and apply indirect measurement techniques, including right triangle trigonometry and properties of similar triangles, to solve problems involving measurements and rates.
Ohio Content Standards:
Apply proportional reasoning to solve problems involving indirect measurements or rates.

Similarity
Postulate 6.1Angle-Angle (AA)
Similarity
If the two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.
Theorem 6.1Side-Side-Side (SSS) Similarity
Theorem 6.1Side-Side-Side (SSS) Similarity
If the measures of the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the triangles are similar.
Theorem 6.2Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Similarity
Theorem 6.2Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Similarity
If the measures of two sides of a triangle are proportional to the measures of two corresponding sides of another triangle and the included angles are congruent, then the triangles are similar.

Josh wanted to measure the height of the Sears Tower in Chicago. He
used a 12-foot light pole and measured its shadow at 1 p.m. The length of the shadow was 2
feet. Then he measured the length of the Sears Tower’s shadow and it was 242 feet at that time. What is
the height of the Sears Tower?
