  2. Similarity (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarity_(geometry)

    Any two equilateral triangles are similar. Two triangles, both similar to a third triangle, are similar to each other (transitivity of similarity of triangles). Corresponding altitudes of similar triangles have the same ratio as the corresponding sides. Two right triangles are similar if the hypotenuse and one other side have lengths in the ...

  3. Angle bisector theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_bisector_theorem

    If an angle of a triangle is bisected internally or externally by a straight line which cuts the opposite side or the opposite side produced, the segments of that side will have the same ratio as the other sides of the triangle; and, if a side of a triangle be divided internally or externally so that its segments have the same ratio as the ...

  4. Parallelogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram

    Two pairs of opposite angles are equal in measure. The diagonals bisect each other. One pair of opposite sides is parallel and equal in length. Adjacent angles are supplementary. Each diagonal divides the quadrilateral into two congruent triangles. The sum of the squares of the sides equals the sum

  5. Pythagorean theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_theorem

    Proof using similar triangles. This proof is based on the proportionality of the sides of three similar triangles, that is, upon the fact that the ratio of any two corresponding sides of similar triangles is the same regardless of the size of the triangles. Let ABC represent a right triangle, with the right angle located at C, as shown on the ...

  6. AA postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AA_postulate

    The postulate can be better understood by working in reverse order. The two triangles on grids A and B are similar, by a 1.5 dilation from A to B. If they are aligned, as in grid C, it is apparent that the angle on the origin is congruent with the other (D). We also know that the pair of sides opposite the origin are parallel.

  7. Similarity system of triangles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarity_System_of_Triangles

    In the opposite similar triangles, the rotation of onto and onto occurs in the opposite direction. In sum, a configuration is a similarity system when all triangles in the set, lie in the same plane and the following holds true: if there are n triangles in the set and n − 1 triangles are directly similar, then n triangles are directly similar.

  8. Congruence (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congruence_(geometry)

    If two triangles satisfy the SSA condition and the length of the side opposite the angle is greater than or equal to the length of the adjacent side (SSA, or long side-short side-angle), then the two triangles are congruent. The opposite side is sometimes longer when the corresponding angles are acute, but it is always longer when the ...

  9. Pons asinorum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pons_asinorum

    The pons asinorum in Oliver Byrne's edition of the Elements [1]. In geometry, the theorem that the angles opposite the equal sides of an isosceles triangle are themselves equal is known as the pons asinorum (/ ˈ p ɒ n z ˌ æ s ɪ ˈ n ɔːr ə m / PONZ ass-ih-NOR-əm), Latin for "bridge of asses", or more descriptively as the isosceles triangle theorem.
