RATIO, PROPORTION, AND SIMILAR FIGURES

In this unit, you will review solving problems with ratios and proportions applying “Equality of Cross Products”. You will then examine similar figures and scale factors. You will then take a closer look at postulates and theorems that are used to determine the similarity of two triangles.
