Label the point of intersection of the transversals A. Select any two of the horizontal lines to form the third side of two different triangles. 1. What convinces you that the two triangles formed by the transversals and the horizontal lines are similar? 2. Label the vertices of the triangles. Write some proportionality statements about the sides of the triangles and then verify the proportionality statements by measuring the sides of the triangles. 3. Select a third horizontal line segment to form a third triangle that is similar to the other two. Write some additional proportionality statements and verify them with measurements.
