Gizmo Warm-up
In the Perimeters and Areas of Similar Figures Gizmo,
you will compare the perimeters and areas of two
similar figures. Similar figures have the same shape,
but may not be the same size.
Be sure Triangle is selected. Set the Similarity ratio to 2.0. (Drag the slider, or select the
number in the text field, type in a new value, and hit Enter.) Select Show ruler to open both
rulers. Measure AB and DE by attaching the ruler's "donuts" to the endpoints.
