Using diagram markings and given information, students will practice determining whether triangles are similar by Side-Side-Side Similarity (SSS~), Side-Angle-Side Similarity (SAS~), or Angle-Angle (AA~) Similarity.

Simply give each student the diagrams sheet and the template. They cut out the 16 diagrams, sort them by which postulate or theorem proves them similar (if possible), determine the similarity statement, then paste on to the template using the row and column headings. Because of the similarity statements, there is only ONE correct answer to this activity. I numbered the diagrams so it will be easier to check their work.

This activity was designed for a high school level geometry class.

This was a great resource to have students work together in determining if the triangles are similar. I think they enjoyed it more than "routine" problems since there was some hands on practice with it. Thanks!

This is exactly what I was looking for to give my students additional experience in solving for the unknown angle. I'll admit I did not use the harder mathematical concepts with my fourth graders. So far I've purchased a lot of content from All Things Algebra, and I have never been disappointed. This was no exception. It was a fun way to review Triangle Similarity, and the kids were engaged in the assignment.

Good, engaging, hands-on task for the students to demonstrate what they had learned. I also was able to post these up on the wall in the classroom.
