Similarity Test upon returning on Friday, April 17

Success Criteria:

1. Prove and justify (explain) how the figures are similar
   Use SSS when ALL sides are a number for BOTH triangles like
   this example
   
   Use SAS when the angle is sandwiched between 2 sides like this
   example
   
   AA with be the majority of the reasons for similarity and may
   look like these examples
   
   Use Altitude Theorem when there is an altitude in a right
   triangle like this
2. Identify what you are solving for
   Side length, angle measure
3. What property will you use to solve
   Corresponding sides are proportional, corresponding angles are
   congruent or the geometric mean
4. Write your equation or proportion
   Remember to set up the proportion with alternating pieces
   small/ big or big/ small
5. Solve for the missing side length or angle measure

For the next 3 weeks, (well really 4 if we count spring break, but we won’t because it’s break) we will be learning math online!

Here are the expectations:

1. Login to EnVision from your google widgets
2. Complete the EnVision assignments, 2 per week
3. Login to Khan Academy, yes you can still enroll
4. Complete the weekly Khan Academy assignment
   
   That’s it!

So, your first assignment is to login to EnVision and check in with your teacher. You can do this as early as Tuesday, March 17.

Then, your first math assignment is on Wednesday, March 18. Take the Readiness Quiz on Volume through Envision. You have until Friday, March 20 to complete.

Just to recap, for the first week:

1. Login to EnVision
   a) Complete the Check In
   b) Complete the Readiness Quiz
   c) Look for a review assignment for Similarity of Triangles
   
2. Login to Khan Academy to check for your first assignment
