Ratio and Proportion Ratio – comparing of two quantities Written two ways: x : y x y A Proportion is an equation that states that two ratios are equal(cross Product). a = b c d ad = bc In a proportion, the product of the means is equal to the product of the extremes

bc = ad

Mean Proportion

If two means of a proportion are equal, either mean is called the mean proportional between the extremes of the proportion In which of the following may the ratios form a proportion:

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Use each set of numbers to form two proportions: 6. 40, 10, 1, 4 7. 4, 6, 18, 12 8. 2, 9, 6, 3 9. 28, 6, 24, 7

HLLS/SAAS Method If the altitude is drawn to the hypotenuse of a right triangle, then:

The  two  triangles  formed  are  similar  to  the  given  triangle  and  similar  to  each  other.   ΔACD ~ ΔABC; ΔACD ~ ΔCBD; ΔCBD ~ ΔABC

The  length  of  each  leg  is  the  mean  proportional  between  the  length  of  the  whole  hypotenuse  and  the  length  of  the  segment  adjacent  to  the  leg.    HLLS
