Congruent and Similarity
*Main points to remember*
Congruent Triangles: Similar Triangles
 Same Size Same Shape

 Same Shape Same Angles
 Same Angles Different Size
Sides/Length differ with the specific ratios
Triangle ABC ≡ Triangle PQR AB is similar to PQ and AC is similar to PR
A B C AB : PQ = AC : PR
P Q R Sometimes the length given is in terms of X or any
Sides/Length: AB = PQ , BC = QR, AC = PR other variable so we have to be very careful while
Angles : A = P, B = Q , C = R solving the questions for the unknown lengths
Enlargement: As we know in similar triangles we use the ratio method to find the unknown values
of the lengths but in this topic the ratios is named as the scale factor
For example:
In this above example the smaller triangle is an object and the bigger one is an image .this shape is
enlarged by some specific ratio called scale factor
Scale Factor is represented by “S .F” or K
Scale Factor = (the given image length) ÷ (the given object length) , i.e A’B’ ÷ AB
