Geometry Lesson 7 – 4 Parallel Lines and Proportional Parts Objective: Use proportional parts within triangles. Use proportional parts with parallel lines.

Theorem Triangle Proportionality Theorem l If a line is parallel to one side of

Theorem Triangle Proportionality Theorem l If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and intersects the other two sides, then it divides the sides into segments of proportional lengths.

Proportional Parts of Parallel Lines If three or more parallel lines intersect two transversals,

Proportional Parts of Parallel Lines If three or more parallel lines intersect two transversals, then they cut off the transversals proportionally.

Frontage is the measurement of a property’s boundary that runs along the side of a particular feature such as a street, lake, ocean, or river. Find the ocean frontage for Lot A to the nearest tenth of a yard. 42 x = 3480 x 82. 9 Lot A is approximately 82. 9 yards

Corollary Congruent Parts of Parallel Lines l If three or more parallel lines cut

Corollary Congruent Parts of Parallel Lines l If three or more parallel lines cut off congruent segments on one transversal, then they cute off congruent segments on every transversal.
