Unit 3 Lesson 8 Cumulative Practice Problems 1. This is an invalid proof that all isosceles triangles are similar. Explain which step is
invalid and why.
1. Draw 2 isosceles triangles ABC and DEF where AC = BC and DF = EF.
2. Dilate triangle ABC to a new triangle A'B'C using center C and scale factor de so
that A'C = B'C = DF = EF.
3. Translate by directed line segment CF to take A'B'C to a new triangle A"B" F.
Since translation preserves distance, A" F = A'C= DF and B" F = BC = EF.
4. Since A" F = DF, we can rotate using center F to take A" to D.
5. Since B" F = EF, we can rotate using center F to take B" to E.
6. We have now established a sequence of dilations, translations, and rotations that
takes A to D, B to E, and C to F, so the triangles are similar.

Abdul is making a map of his neighborhood he knows the following information: his home, the middle school, and high school are all on the same street. his home, the elementry school, and his friends house are on the same street. the angle between the elementary school, middle school, and his home is congruent to the angle between his friends house, the high school, and his home. what theorem can abdul use to determine the two triangles are similar? a- side side side similarity theoremb- angle angle similarity theoremc- corresponding parts of similar triangles are congruentd- pieces of right triangles similarity theorem
