Metric Relations in Right Triangles

Lesson 1 Take the following 2 pages of notes Create a triangle and proof

Lesson 1 Take the following 2 pages of notes Create a triangle and proof the triangles are similar after adding an altitude Work in Visions textbook 1 page 179

 By drawing the altitude from the right angle of a right triangle, three

By drawing the altitude from the right angle of a right triangle, three similar right triangles are formed C △ABC∼△ACD∼△ADB

Reminder: Similar Triangles Corresponding angles are congruent AND Corresponding sides are proportional in length

Reminder: Similar Triangles Corresponding angles are congruent AND Corresponding sides are proportional in length Minimum Conditions: 1. AA 2. SAS 3. SSS

Activity Take 10 minutes. Use graph paper Draw a right triangle Draw the altitude
