PRE- ACTIVITY:
MOTIVATION:
Pair of similar triangles will be posted by the teacher on the board. The teacher will ask a
a. How can we determine that the two triangles are similar? question.
b. Could it be possible that triangles are similar if only two of its
angles are congruent to the two angles of another triangle?
