Similar triangles are triangles whose corresponding are congruent and whose corresponding sides are proportional in length?
angles
If two sides of one triangle are proportional to two sides of a second triangle and the included angles of those sides are congruent then are the triangles similar?
If the 3 sides are proportional by ratio and the angles remain the same then the two triangles are similar
If two triangles have three pairs of congruent angles then the triangles are not guaranteed to be congruent?
Correct. Congruency means that two triangles have three pairs of congruent angles and corresponding sides of the same lengths. A pair of triangles with three pairs of congruent angles but sides of different lengths are similar, not congruent.
Can you assume that corresponding sides and corresponding angles of any two similar triangles are congruent and why?
you can assume that the angles are congruent, but not the sides.
What make triangles congruent?
Triangles are congruent to each other if they have the same 3 sides in length and have the same interior angles.
What are triangles with congruent angles and proportional sides?
erectile disfunction
What is the term for two triangles whoSe angles are congruent and sides are proportional?
Such triangles are similar.
Similar triangles are triangles whose corresponding are congruent and whose corresponding sides are proportional in length?
angles
Similar triangles are triangles whose corresponding angles are congruent and whose corresponding sides are in length?
proportional
What are the corresponding sides called in similar triangles whose corresponding angles are congruent?
Proportional.
If two sides of one triangle are proportional to two sides of a second triangle and the included angles of those sides are congruent then are the triangles similar?
If the 3 sides are proportional by ratio and the angles remain the same then the two triangles are similar
How many congruent sides and angles do equilateral triangles have?
Equilateral triangles have three congruent sides and three congruent angles
A type of triangle with no equal sides?
There are three types of triangles. Scalene triangles have no congruent sides or angles, equilateral triangles have 3 congruent sides and 3 60degree angles, and isosceles triangles have two congruent sides and two congruent angles.
If two triangles have three pairs of congruent angles are the triangles guaranteed to be congruent?
No- triangles with all angles respectively equal need not be congruent. For example, all equilateral triangles have 3 angles of 60 degrees each but the the sides could be any length. However the sides of such triangles are proportional - such triangles are called similar. They look alike except for their scale.
Similar triangles are triangles whose corresponding?
angles are congruent. That is sufficient to force the corresponding sides to be proportional - which is the other definition of similarity.
How are two angles triangles be congruent?
If they have identical sides and angles then they are congruent
What are the properties of the different types of triangle?
There are three types of triangles. Equilateral triangles have three congruent sides and three sixty-degree angles. Isosceles triangles have two congruent sides and the angles opposite those two sides are also congruent. Scalene triangles have no congruent sides or angles.
