To construct two triangles similar to each other, the ratio of each side has to be the same.
Explanation:
Given:- Two triangles are similar.
Construction
Triangle ABC.
Step 1. Fist draw a Triangle ABC with below mentioned sides.
AB = 3 cm.
BC = 4 cm.
CA = 5 cm.
Step2. Now draw second triangle with sides of equal ratio. For this you have to multiply each side by the same number.
So, here we multiple sides by 4.
XY = 4(AB).
YZ = 4(BC)
ZX = 4(AC).
So, XY = 4 x 3 = 12 cm.
YZ = 4 x 4 = 16 cm.
ZX = 4 x 5 = 20 cm.
Step 3. Now construct second triangle XYZ with the new measure of sides calculated above.
So, AB/XY = BC/YZ = AC/XZ.
Thus the triangles ABC and Triangle XYZ are corresponding.
