2. MODELS Jim has a scale model of his sailboat. The figure shows drawings of the original sailboat and the model. Find x.

3. GEOMETRY Georgia draws a regular pentagon and starts connecting its vertices to make a 5-pointed star. After drawing three of the lines in the star, she becomes curious about two triangles that appear in the figure, !ABC and !BCE. They look similar to her. Prove that this is the case. Sample answer: m!ADB ! 108, so m!DBA ! 36 (base of iso- sceles "ABD). Thus, m!ABC ! 72°. Similarly, m!DCB ! 36° and m!ACB ! 72°. So, m!BEC ! 72° and m!BAC ! 36°. Therefore, "ABC and "BCE are similar.

4. SHADOWS A radio tower casts a shadow 8 feet long at the same time that a vertical yardstick casts a shadow half an inch long. How tall is the radio tower? 576 ft

MOUNTAIN PEAKS For Exercises 5 and 6, use the following information. Gavin and Brianna want to know how far a mountain peak is from their houses. They measure the angles between the line of site to the peak and to each other’s houses and carefully make the drawing shown.

Special Segments of Similar Triangles When two triangles are similar, corresponding altitudes, angle bisectors, and medians are proportional to the corresponding sides. Also, in any triangle an angle bisector separates the opposite side into segments that have the same ratio as the other two sides of the triangle.

In the figure, !ABC ! !XYZ, with angle bisectors as shown. Find x.

Since !ABC ! !XYZ, the measures of the angle bisectors are proportional to the measures of a pair of corresponding sides.

1. JOGGING Macy wants to jog around Triangle Park. On a scale map, the park has a perimeter of 11 inches. The scale of the map is 1 inch : 100 yards. What is the perimeter of the actual park? 1100 yd

2. TENTS Jana went camping and stayed in a tent shaped like a triangle. In a photo of the tent, the base of the tent is 6 inches and the altitude is 5 inches. The actual base was 12 feet long. What was the height of the actual tent?

10 ft

3. PLAYGROUND The playground at Hank’s school has a large right triangle painted in the ground. Hank starts at the right angle corner and walks toward the opposite side along an angle bisector and stops when he gets to the hypotenuse.

How much farther from Hank is point B versus point A?

7!17! ft

4. FLAG POLES A flag pole attached to the side of a building is supported with a network of strings as shown in the figure.

The rigging is done so that AE ! EF, AC ! CD, and AB ! BC. What is the ratio of CF to BE? 2 : 1

COPIES For Exercises 5 and 6, use the following information. Gordon made a photocopy of a page from his geometry book to enlarge one of the figures. The actual figure that he copied is shown below.

The photocopy came out poorly. Gordon could not read the numbers on the photocopy, although the triangle itself was clear. Gordon measured the base of the enlarged triangle and found it to be 200 millimeters.

5. What is the length of the drawn altitude of the enlarged triangle? Round your answer to the nearest millimeter. 149 mm

6. What is the length of the drawn median of the enlarged triangle? Round your answer to the nearest millimeter. 154 mm
