OF ANGLES AND SIDES


Here a,b,c are the lengths of the sides
a triangle and x,y,z are the lengths of the
sides of another triangle with the same angles.
We started with the triangles ABC and
XYZ in which <A=<X , <B=<Y ,<C=<Z.

The numbers pairs (x,a), (y,b), (z,c) are


the length of the sides opposite the pairs of equal angles.

Now x/a is the number which shows


how many times the number X is the number a (or what
part of X is a). The other numbers y/b and z/c have
similar meanings.
Whatever times (or part) we take to
chage the side of length a to the side of length X such
times (or part) is to be taken to change the side of length b
to the side of length y and the side of length c to the side of
length Z.
In other words, all these pairs of
lengths are in the same ratio. So, we can state this result
about the angles lengths of the sides of a triangle with the
same angles, as follows.
If all the angles of a triangle are
equal to the angles of another triangle, then all the pairs of
sides opposite equal angles have the same ratio.
OF SIDES AND ANGLES
Does the pair of triangles with proportional
sides also have the same angles?
Lets consider the triangle shown below
