1. -Pages ages 174-5 Additional Practice 3.
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

OBJECTIVE: •To use the defintion of similarity to recognize
when figures are similar •To determine the scale factor between
similar figures to find the lengths of corresponding
sides[1.1.4] •To find a missing measurement in a pair of
similar figures[1.1.4] •To use the relationship between scale
factor and area to find the area of a figure that is similar
to a figure of a known area[3.2.1] •To solve problems that
involve scaling up and down[1.1.4] ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT:
Read/do/discuss problem 4.1 and follow-up on page 42. Main
topic is 'scale factor' secondary topic should be perspective
