OBJECTIVE: • To review locating points in a coordinate system •
To graph figures using algebraic rules • To predict how figures
on a coordinate system are affected by a given rule • To learn
that corresponding angles of similar figures are equal and that
corresponding sides grow by the same factor[1.3.1] • To
compare lengths and angles in similar and nonsimilar figures
informally • To experiment with examples and counterexamples
of similar shapes ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Complete Problem 2.1

1. -HW P173 Additional Practice 2 (worksheet).
OBJECTIVE: • To recognize similar figures and to be able to
tell why they are similar [1.3.3][1.3.1] • To understand that
any two similar figures are related by a scale factor, which is
the ratio of their corresponding sizes • To build a larger,
similar shape from copies of a basic shape (a rep-tile) • To
find rep-tiles by dividing a large shape into smaller, similar
shapes • To understand that the sides and perimeters of similar
figures grow by a scale factor and that the areas grow by the
square of the scale factor[1.2.1][1.2.3] • To find a missing
measurement in a pair of similar figures • To recognize that
triangles with equal corresponding angles are similar

Similar Figures" NOTES: RepTiles HOMEWORK: Page 33+ 2-5
