Applying Properties of Similar Triangles Flashcards
1
Q
What is the Triangle Proportionality Theorem?
A
If a line parallel to a side of a triangle intersects the other two sides, then it divides two sides proportionally.
2
Q
What is the Converse of the Triangle Proportionality Theorem?
A
If a line divides two sides of a triangle proportionally, then it is a parallel to the third side.
3
Q
What is the Two-Transversal Proportionality Corollary?
A
If three or more parallel lines intersect two transversals, then they divide the transversals proportionally.
4
Q
What is the Triangle Angle Bisector Theorem?
A
An angle bisector of a triangle divides the opposite side into two segments whose lengths are proportional to the lengths of the other two sides.
