Lesson 24 Ratios, Rates and Percents Ratios and Similar Figures

Warm-Up 1. Sketch two congruent rectangles. 2. Sketch two similar, but not congruent, triangles.

Warm-Up 1. Sketch two congruent rectangles. 2. Sketch two similar, but not congruent, triangles. 3. Find the perimeter of the shape below.

Ratios and Similar Figures Target: Find missing sides or perimeters of figures using ratios.

Ratios and Similar Figures Target: Find missing sides or perimeters of figures using ratios.

Example 1 Two similar figures are shown below. Find the ratio of the smaller

Example 1 Two similar figures are shown below. Find the ratio of the smaller figure’s perimeter to the larger figure’s perimeter. � Find � The ratio of sides. ratio of the perimeters is or 1: 2.

Example 2 Given the similar figures, use ratios to find the missing perimeter. �

Example 2 Given the similar figures, use ratios to find the missing perimeter. � Find ratio of corresponding sides. � Find ratio of perimeters. � Ratio of perimeters equals ratio of corresponding sides. Use equivalent fractions to find the larger perimeter. � The perimeter of the triangle is 36 inches.

Example 3 Given the similar figures and perimeters, use ratios to find the length

Example 3 Given the similar figures and perimeters, use ratios to find the length of the missing side. � Find ratio of perimeters. � Find ratio of corresponding sides. � Ratio of perimeters equals ratios of corresponding sides. Use equivalent fractions to find the missing side. � The missing side is 10 feet.
