2. Checking of Class secretary, who is absent today? None, ma’am!
Attendance That is good to hear!
Before we proceed to our lesson this morning,
who can define similar triangles? Right
triangle?

Rhianne, what are similar triangles? Similar triangles are two or more
triangles with the same shape, equal

same ratio of the corresponding sides.

What about a right triangle, Cherlyn? A right triangle is a figure where one of
the three angles measures 90° and the
Very good! other two angles are acute which sums
to 90°.

4. Motivation Class, I have pictures

here.
 The first picture ma’am is a pyramid or
pyramids.
What can you say about each picture? Yes, Maam!

The second picture ma’am is a

sandwich that shapes like a right
triangle.
Very good!

You know class, this will lead us to our topic

this morning,” Word problems that involve
triangle similarity and right triangles”.

At the end of the lesson, you are expected to;

 Illustrate problems that involve triangle

similarity and right triangles.
 Solve problems that involve triangle
similarity and right triangles.
 Appreciate the importance of triangle
similarity and right triangles in solving real-
life problems.
Yes, Ma’am!
Are you excited to learn this morning?
But before that, let us study the following terms
as you will encounter them throughout our
lesson.

B.
Presentation of
the Lesson
(Let the students read the following terms.)

Cast a shadow is a shadow cast by an object Students will read the following terms
or figure in a painting or other picture. one by one.

A proportion is an equality between two ratios

or fractions.

Length is the term used for identifying the size

of an object or distance from one point to the
other point.

Lean(s) – to incline or bend from a vertical

position.

Very Good!
Are you excited this morning? Yes, Ma’am!
Now, I want you to Guess the following.

Deepening
You did an excellent job in recalling the
important concept of solving the missing value
of the given triangles.

Class, in solving problems that involve triangle

similarity and right triangles, we follow some
steps to make our solutions organized to come
up with the correct answers. After reading and
analyzing the problem, here are the steps.

(Let the students read the following steps.)

Steps in solving problems that involveTriangle

Similarity and Right Triangles.

Step 1. Identify the given information and

illustrate the problem.
Step 2. Determine the formula to be used.
Step 3. Solve for the unknown in the given Students will read the steps in solving
problem. problems that involve triangle similarity
Step 4: state the final answer. and right triangles.
(Remember : Answer must be in a complete
sentence.)

Example problem 1.
(Let the students read the problem.)
An Eiffel Tower casts a shadow that is 28m
long, a nearby pole casts a shadow that is 4m
long. If the pole is 6m high, how high is the
tower?

Before we will solve the problem…

(The teacher will show a picture of Eiffel
Tower.)
DID YOU KNOW THAT?
Eiffel Tower is a famous Students will read the problem.
landmark located in Paris,
France. It was built by Gustave
Eiffel in 1889 and stands at 324
Meters (1,063 feet) tall.

Now, let us solve the problem using the steps

in solving problems.

Solution:
Step 1. identify the given information and
illustrate the problem.
Given:
28m = length of the shadow of tower
4m = length of the pole of shadow
6m = length of the high of pole

Asked: how high is the tower?

Let x be the length of the tower

Step 2. Determine the formula to be used.

Using Proportion,

x 28
=
6 4

Step 3. Solve for the unknown in the given

problem.
x 28
=
6 4
4 x=6(2 8)
4 x 6(2 ∙2 ∙ 7)
=
4 4
x=¿ 42
Step 4: state the final answer.
Therefore, the length of the Eiffel Tower is 42ft.
Class. Do you have any questions?

Okay, that’s good!

Now, let’s have another example.

Example problem 2.
(Let the students read the problem.)

A ladder leans against the side of the house. None, Ma’am!

The top of the ladder is 24 ft. from the floor. Its
base from the house is 7 ft. How long is the
ladder?
Students will read the problem.

Solution:
Step 1. Identify the given information and
illustrate the problem.

Given:
24 ft = length of the top of the ladder
7 ft = length of the base from the house.

Asked: How long is the ladder?

Let x be the ladder.

Step 2. Determine the formula to be used.

PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM:
c2 = a2 + b2

Step 3. Solve for the unknown in the given

problem.
2
c = 242 + 72
2
c = 576 + 49
c 2 = 625
√ c 2= √ 625
c = 25

Step 3. Solve for the unknown in the given

problem.
 Therefore, the ladder is 25 ft. long.

Okay, do you have any questions?

Since you don’t have any questions. I want you None, Ma’am!
to try to solve it in your notebook.

Problem 1.
A 15 feet tree casts a shadow that is 8 ft. long. A student will answer the problem on
What is the distance from the tip of the tree to the board.
the tip of its shadow?

Solution:
c2 = 152 + 82
c2 = 225 + 64
√ c 2 = √ 289
c = 17
5. Application
Therefore, the distance from the tip of
the tree to the tip of its shadow is 17 ft.
So class, who wants to answer the problem on
the board? Rhylle, do you want to answer it on Yes,Ma’am!
the board?

Okay, kindly explain your answer.
Very good!
So class, do you have any questions?
How did you solve problems that involve
triangle similarity and right triangles?
C.
Generalization
(The student will explain his/her
answer.)
None, ma’am!
- By using the different theorems that
we learned from our previous lesson.
- By following the different steps in
solving word problems that involve
triangle similarity and right triangles.

D. Extend

Okay class, get ½ crosswise and answer the

problem.

A tree that is 5ft tall that casts a shadow of 4ft Solution:

is standing next to a building that casts a x 12
shadow of 12ft. How tall is the building?
=
5 4
4 x=12(5)
V. Evaluation 4 x 12(5)
=
4 4
x=15

Therefore, the height of the building is

15 ft.

VI. Assignment Solve the following world problems.

1. The mast of a sailboat is 12 feet high. A Solution 1:

sturdy rope that supports the mast to the deck c2 = 122 + 52
is 5 feet away from the base of the mast. c2 = 144 + 25
Determine the length of the rope. c2 = 169
c = √ 169
 c = 13
2. A 15m vertical post casts a 6m shadow
when a tower casts a shadow of 100m. what is Therefore, the length of the rope is
the height of the tower? 13ft.

Solution 2:
15 6
=
x 100
6x = 15(100)
6 x 15(100)
=
6 6
X = 250m

Therefore, the height of the tower is

250m.
