章节大纲

  • If two triangles are similar , it means that all corresponding angle pairs are congruent and all corresponding sides are proportional . However, in order to be sure that two triangles are similar, you do not necessarily need to have information about all sides and all angles
    ::如果两个三角形相似, 这意味着所有相应的角对是相近的, 所有对应的边是比例的。 但是, 为了确定两个三角形是相似的, 您并不一定需要获得关于所有边和所有角的信息 。

    • The AA criterion for triangle similarity states that if two triangles have two pairs of congruent angles, then the triangles are similar.
      ::三角形相似性AA标准规定,如果两个三角形有两对相近角,三角形就相似。

    This statement can be expressed as follows:
    ::这一陈述可表述如下:

    If two triangles A B C and D E F are such that A = D , and  B = E then   C = F ,
    ::如果两个三角的ABC和DEF 都达到AQD和BBE 然后是CF

    and  A B C D E F indicating  that   B C E F = A C D F = A B D E
    ::以及 ABC-DEF, 表明BCEF=ACDF=ABDE

    Click the small blue arrow next to the image below and then drag the orange vertices to reshape the triangle  A B C  and observe the other triangle  D E F  change accordingly to remain similar.
    ::单击下方图像旁边的蓝色小箭头,然后拖动橙色顶部以重塑三角形ABC,并观察其他三角形的DEF相应变化以保持相似。

    1. Consider the triangles below. Dilate A B C with a scale factor of F E A B to create A B C .  What do you know about the sides and angles of A B C ?
    ::1. 考虑下方三角形。将 QABC 与 FEAB 比例因数相配,以创建 QABC。你对 QABC 的侧面和角度了解多少?

    Two triangles with marked angles, demonstrating AA similarity criterion in geometry.

    Below, A B C is dilated about point P with a scale factor of F E A B to create A B C .
    ::以下为“ABC”扩展至P点,其比例系数为“FEAB”,以创建“A'B'C”。

    are congruent after a dilation is performed, so B B .  Therefore, B E as well.
    ::进行比照后是相同的, 所以 B B。 因此, B E 也是一样 。

    Similarly, A A ,  and therefore A F .
    ::同样,AAAAA,因此AAAF。

    Because the scale factor was F E A B , you know that  A B = F E A B A B = F E .
    ::因为比额表系数是FEAB, 你知道A'B'FEABAB=FE。

    Therefore:  ¯ A B ¯ F E .
    ::因此:A'B'FE。

    2) P rove that A B C F E D .
    ::2) 证明ABCFED。

    Y ou know now that B E , A F and ¯ A B ¯ F E . This means that A B C F E D by A S A . Therefore, there must exist a sequence of rigid transformations that will carry F E D to A B C .
    ::现在你知道"B"、"A"、"A"、"B"和"A"了。这意味着"A"B'C" 和"A'C"。因此,必须存在一系列的僵硬变换, 将"FED"带到"A'B'C"。

    A B C F E D because a series of rigid transformations will carry F E D to A B C , and then a dilation will carry A B C to A B C .
    ::ABC=FED,因为一系列的硬质变换 将携带FEED到AAB=C}然后放大 将携带AB=C=ABC

    All that was known about the original two triangles in #1 was two pairs of congruent angles. Therefore, you have proved that AA is a criterion for triangle similarity.
    ::在 # 1 中, 最初的两个三角形的已知点只有两对相似角度。 因此, 您已经证明了 AAA 是三角形相似性的标准 。

    3) Are the triangles below similar? Explain.
    ::3) 三角形以下是否相似?请解释。

    One pair of angles is marked as being congruent.
    ::一对角度被标记为相似 。

    You also  know   another pair of congruent angles due to the in the center of the picture.
    ::您还知道另一对相近角度, 是由图片的中间部分造成的。

    Therefore, the triangles are similar by A A .
    ::因此,三角形与AAQQ相似。


    Examples
    ::实例实例实例实例

    Example 1
    ::例1

    Why don't you have to verify that all three pairs of corresponding angles are congruent in order to show that two triangles are similar?
    ::你何不核实这三对对应角度是否吻合 才能证明两个三角形是相似的呢?

    If two pairs of angles are congruent, then three pairs of angles must be congruent due to the fact that the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 .
    ::如果两对角度一致,那么三对角度必须一致,因为三角形内角的测量总和是180。

    Therefore, three pairs of congruent angles is more information than you need.
    ::因此,三对一致的角度 比你需要的信息更多。

    Triangles ABC and DEF with corresponding angles marked to illustrate triangle similarity.

    Prove that C B A G D A .
    ::证明那个CBAGDA

    Note that ¯ C B     ¯ G D . This means that A G D A C B because they are corresponding angles. A is shared by both triangles. Two pairs of angles are congruent, so C B A G D A by A A .

    Example 3
    ::例3

    Prove that C B A C E F .
    ::证明一下CBACEF

    Note that ¯ A B     ¯ F E . This means that B A C E F C because they are corresponding angles. C is shared by both triangles. Two pairs of angles are congruent, so C B A C E F by A A .
    ::注意 AB {FE} 。 这表示 {BAC {EFC} 因为它们是相应的角度 。 <C} 由两个三角共有。 两对角是相同的, 所以 {CBA} {CEF by AA} 。

    Example 4
    ::例4

    Prove that C B A G H F .
    ::证明那个"CBAGHF"

    In Example #2 you found that A G D A C B . In Example #3 you found that B A C E F C . Two pairs of angles are congruent, so C B A G H F by A A .
    ::在例#2中,你发现了AGDACB。在例#3中,你发现了BACEFC。两对角度是相容的,所以AAQQ的CBAGHF。
