Get hundreds of interactive activity plans using the Zome Modeling System. Among dozens of lessons, a first exposure to similar triangles can be very visual for the learner. Here, young geometers explore the number of different shapes...

In this similar triangles instructional activity, students solve 6 similar triangles. Students use proportions to solve similar triangles and similar rectangles.

In this triangle relationships worksheet, students identify measurements in similar and congruent triangles. Each problem features a drawing of two or more triangles. Students identify missing measurements. There are 5 multiple choice...

In this identifying similar triangles worksheet, 10th graders solve 5 different proofs related to similar triangles. First, they identify the similar triangles in each figure and explain why they are similar, using the information to...

In this parts of similar triangles worksheet, 10th graders solve 6 different problems related to determining the value of various parts of similar triangles. First, they find the value of x in the 2 figures shown. Then, students find the...

Learners calculate the height of a tree or flagpole. They measure the shadow of the tree or flagpole and the length of a shadow of a meterstick. Using similar triangles, calculate the heigh. Devise two additional ways in which to measure...

In this Geometry instructional (work)sheet, students are instructed on how to find the geometric mean.  Students are then shown how the geometric mean is applied to proving similar triangles.

Students, through lecture and guided practice, discover the properties of similar triangles. They use given measurements of one triangle to find a missing measurement of a similar triangle. They apply this knowledge in real-life...

Tenth graders answer a variety of problems based on similar triangle and learn about the rule of thumb. They will test the rule of thumb by estimating the distance to an object in the classroom.
