    9.5 Parts of Similar Triangles

    Uploaded by

    Pelita Ganda Sari Naibaho
    If two triangles are similar, then the lengths of corresponding altitudes, angle bisectors, and medians are proportional to the lengths of the corresponding sides. The document provides examples of using proportions involving corresponding segments of similar triangles to find unknown side lengths. Special segments like altitudes, medians, and angle bisectors are defined. Proportional relationships between corresponding segments of similar triangles are stated and used to solve problems.
