What are triangles whose corresponding angles are equal and corresponding sides are in proportion?
Similar triangles.
How can similar triangles become congruent triangles?
If they are enlarged or reduced so that their corresponding sides are the same measure. Actually, only one pair of corresponding sides needs to be of the same measure. Then the similarity ensures all others are as well.
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.
What is a Similar triangles?
Two triangles are said to be similar if the ratio of the sides of one triangle to the corresponding sides of the other triangle remains the same. One consequence is that all corresponding angles are the same.

Will the lengths of two corresponding altitudes of similar triangles will have the same ratio as any pair of corresponding sides?
It is given that two triangles are similar. So that the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal. If you draw altitudes from the same vertex to both triangles, then they would divide the original triangles into two triangles which are similar to the originals and to each other. So the altitudes, as sides of the similar triangles, will have the same ratio as any pair of corresponding sides of the original triangles.
What is true about corresponding angles and corresponding sides of similar figures?
The ratio between corresponding sides or angles of similar triangles are equal
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
Is sss a way to find if triangles are similar?
Triangles are congruent if all three sides in one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides in the other.When two triangles have corresponding sides with identical ratios, the triangles are similar.Of course if triangles are congruent, they are also similar.
Which is not a property of all similar triangles?
the corresponding sides are congruent
What are the corresponding sides called in similar triangles whose corresponding angles are congruent?
Proportional.
What is a Similar triangles?
Two triangles are said to be similar if the ratio of the sides of one triangle to the corresponding sides of the other triangle remains the same. One consequence is that all corresponding angles are the same.
What is the SSS Theorem?
If the three sets of corresponding sides of two triangles are in proportion, the triangles are similar.
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.
