Signs of equality and similarity of triangles

Signs of triangle equality

1. If two sides and the angle between them of one triangle are equal to two sides and the angle between them of another triangle, then such triangles are equal.
The first sign of equality of triangles 2. If the side and the two angles adjacent to it of one triangle are equal to the side and the two angles adjacent to it of another triangle, then such triangles are equal.
The second sign of equality of triangles 3. If three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, then such triangles are equal.
The third sign of equality of trianglesв

Signs of the equality of rectangular triangles

1. If the legs of one rectangular triangle are equal to the legs of another rectangular triangle, then such triangles are equal.
By two legs 2. If the leg and hypotenuse of one rectangular triangle are respectively equal to the leg and hypotenuse of another rectangular triangle, then such triangles are equal.
By leg and hypotenuse 3. If the leg and acute angle of one rectangular triangle are respectively equal to the leg and acute angle of another rectangular triangle, then such triangles are equal.
By leg and acute angle
4. If the hypotenuse and acute angle of one rectangular triangle are respectively equal to the hypotenuse and acute angle of another rectangular triangle, then such triangles are equal.

Similar triangles

If triangles ABC and A1B1C1 have respectively equal angles:

∠A = ∠A1, ∠B = ∠B1, ∠C = ∠C1,

then the sides lying opposite the equal angles are called similar:

AB  and  A1B1,  BC  and  B1C1,  CA  and  C1A1.

Two triangles whose angles are equal and pairs of similar sides are proportional are called similar.
Similar triangles In this case, the proportionality coefficient k is called the similarity coefficient.

Signs of similarity of triangles

1. If two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle, then such triangles are similar.
The first sign of similarity of triangles 2. If two sides of one triangle are proportional to two sides of another triangle and the angles between these sides are equal, then such triangles are similar.
The second sign of similarity of triangles 3. If the sides of one triangle are proportional to the sides of another triangle, then such triangles are similar.
The third sign of similarity of triangles

Ratio of areas of similar triangles

The areas of similar triangles are related as the coefficient of similarity squared.
Ratio of areas of similar triangles

Signs of similarity of rectangular triangles

1. If the acute angle of one rectangular triangle is equal to the acute angle of another rectangular triangle, then such triangles are similar.

By aqute angle 2. If two legs of one rectangular triangle are proportional to two legs of another rectangular triangle, then such triangles are similar.

By two legs 3. If the leg and hypotenuse of one rectangular triangle are proportional to the leg and hypotenuse of another rectangular triangle, then such triangles are similar.
