If to polygons are similar how can you find the scale factor?
You divide a length of one polygon by the corresponding length in the other polygon. Any length will do, as long as you use the corresponding length in both.
What are some methods that can prove triangles congruent?
SSS - Side-Side-SideAll three corresponding sides of the triangles have the same length AAS - Angle-Angle-Side; ASA - Angle-Side-AngleTwo corresponding angles are equal and a corresponding side is equal SAS - Side-Angle-SideTwo corresponding sides have the same length and the enclosed angle is the same. Note: it is important that the angle is the one between the corresponding sides of equal length.RHS - Right_angle-Hypotenuse-SideIn a right angled triangle the hypotenuse and a corresponding side must be equal.
What is the noun corresponding to the adjective long?
The noun form for the adjective long is longness.A related noun is length.
What is the formula for finding a missing side on a congruent triangle?
It is the same length as the corresponding side on the other triangle.
How can you make a rectangle with an area of 25 cm?
cm is not a unit of area, it is a unit of length. If you mean cm2, choose any measure (in cm) for the length, then divide 25 by that length to obtain the corresponding width.
If two figures are similar how can you find a missing side length?
To find a missing side length in similar figures, you can use the property that corresponding sides of similar figures are in proportion. Set up a ratio using the lengths of the known corresponding sides from both figures. For example, if the ratio of the sides of Figure 1 to Figure 2 is known, you can express the relationship as a proportion and solve for the missing side length. This can be represented mathematically as (\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}), where (a) and (b) are corresponding sides, and (c) is the known side from one figure, with (d) being the unknown side in the other figure.
Do you need to know the length of all the sides of one triangle to find a missing length of a similar triangle?
No, you do not need to know the length of all the sides of one triangle to find a missing length of a similar triangle. If you know at least one pair of corresponding sides from both triangles, you can use the proportionality of the sides in similar triangles to find the missing length. The ratio of the lengths of corresponding sides remains constant, allowing you to set up a proportion to solve for the unknown length.
How can you use similarity and proportionality to find missing measures?
Similarity and proportionality can be used to find missing measures by establishing ratios between corresponding sides of similar figures. When two geometric shapes are similar, their corresponding sides are proportional, meaning the ratio of one side length to the corresponding side length in the other figure is constant. By setting up a proportion with known measures, you can solve for the unknown length using cross-multiplication. This method is particularly useful in triangles, where the Angle-Angle (AA) similarity criterion guarantees that corresponding sides remain proportional.
If to polygons are similar how can you find the scale factor?
You divide a length of one polygon by the corresponding length in the other polygon. Any length will do, as long as you use the corresponding length in both.
How do you find shadow height?
To find the height of a shadow, you can use similar triangles. Measure the height of the object casting the shadow and the length of the shadow itself. Then, using a known reference height and its corresponding shadow length, set up a proportion: (height of object)/(length of shadow) = (height of reference)/(length of reference shadow). Solve for the unknown height.
What is the mathematical definition for corresponding sides?
Corresponding sides are sides that have the exact same length.
How do you find the arc length with the angle given?
An arc can be measured either in degree or in unit length. An arc is a portion of the circumference of the circle which is determined by the size of its corresponding central angle. We create a proportion that compares the arc to the whole circle first in degree measure and then in unit length. (measure of central angle/360 degrees) = (arc length/circumference) arc length = (measure of central angle/360 degrees)(circumference) But, maybe the angle that determines the arc in your problem is not a central angle. In such a case, find the arc measure in degree, and then write the proportion to find the arc length.
What is the length of an arc corresponding to an angle of one radians?
Equal to the length of the radius.
What is the correct proportion of the length of a person to the length of his body?
About 1:1 sounds appropriate.
Triangles ABC and DEF are similar. Find the length of segment EF.?
To find the length of segment EF in similar triangles ABC and DEF, you need to use the properties of similar triangles, which state that corresponding sides are proportional. First, identify the lengths of corresponding sides from both triangles. Then, set up a proportion using these lengths and solve for EF. If you provide the lengths of the sides, I can help you calculate EF specifically.

What is the ratios of a length on a scale drawing to the corresponding length on the real object?
The scale factor.
