Similar Figures

This video explains similar figures and how to figure out if two shapes are similar using sides and angles. Plus, it discusses how to use one shape figure out unknown measurements of a similar shape.

Who’s else teacher made them watch this

i just procastinated my geometry project so thank you for helping

my teacher made me watch this too it's alright

I guess math teachers find this helpful.

i have autism, and this video helped me a lot as my maths teacher confuses me, i use visuals to help me learn so thank you for making this- it really helped :)

I showed this to my accelerated math class of 7th graders and they noticed that the triangle proposed in the first example is not actually a triangle... it's a line. The dimensions were 8, 12, and 20, and due to the Triangle Inequality Theorem, the smaller two sides have to add up to a larger number than the largest side. Therefore, 8 + 12 must be greater than 20, and it's not : D We did love your video, just noticed the small error. Thanks for the funny approach to math.

Good info on this video. However, one of my students pointed out that the "bermuda triangle" measurements are not actually possible. (The 2 smaller sides equal the 3rd side, but the 3rd side needs to be larger than the 3rd side.) But thanks for keeping the material interesting with good graphics. :-) Thanks!

i learned less off this video than a alex jones speech about obama's chemicals turning frogs gay

Thank you but I'm still a little confused, how do you write the proportions? My teacher has explained to me a couple times but I am still SO confused. If see you see this comment could you please help me understand this concept please?

Taking notes on this for my geometry class 😃

bru my teacher made my watch this but good vid

The 12-8-20 triangle in the first example cannot be a triangle...12 + 8 must be greater than the third side, which is 20. This "triangle" falls flat.

i love your vids their funny and helpful

Lol why would anybody become an architect?

Thanks I now understand similar figures more lol
