Define similarity transformation as the composition of basic rigid motions and dilations. Describe similarity transformation applied to an arbitrary figure.
Topic A: Dilations off the Coordinate Plane
Describe properties of scale drawings.
Standards
G.SRT.A.2
Define and describe the characteristics of dilations. Dilate figures using constructions when the center of dilation is not on the figure.
G.CO.A.2G.SRT.A.2G.SRT.A.3
Verify that dilations result in congruent angles and proportional line segments.
Divide a line segment into equal sections using dilation.
G.CO.D.12G.SRT.A.1.AG.SRT.A.1.B
Dilate a figure from a point on the figure. Use the properties of dilations with respect to parallel lines to verify dilations and find the center of dilation.
G.CO.D.12G.SRT.A.1.AG.SRT.A.2
Prove that a line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionally.
G.CO.C.10G.SRT.B.4G.SRT.B.5

Topic B: Dilations on the Coordinate Plane
Dilate a figure on the coordinate plane when the center of dilation is the origin.
G.CO.A.2G.SRT.A.2
Dilate a figure when the center of dilation is not the origin. Determine center of dilation given the original and dilated figure.
Topic C: Defining Similarity
G.SRT.A.2G.SRT.B.5
Prove that all circles are similar.
G.C.A.1
Prove angle-angle criterion for two triangles to be similar.
G.SRT.A.3
Use angle-angle criterion to prove two triangles to be similar.
Develop the side splitter theorem and side-angle-side similarity criteria, and use these in the solution of problems.
G.SRT.B.5
Topic D: Similarity Applications
Develop the angle bisector theorem based on facts about similarity and congruence, and use this in the solution of problems.
Use the side-side-side criteria for similarity and other similarity and congruence theorems in the solution of problems.
Solve for measurements involving right triangles using scale factors and ratios.
Solve real-life problems with two different centers of dilation.
