Definitions

Ratio The ratio of one number to

another is the _______ when the first number is ______ by the second.

Its usually expressed in simplest form.

What is looks like….. The ratio of 8 to 12 is

______, or ______. If y ≠ 0, then the ration of

x to y is _______.

Ex. 1: Simplifying Ratios Simplify the ratios:

a. 12 cm b. 6n2 c. 9p

4 cm 18n 18p

Example 2

Find the ratio of OI to ZD Using the same trapezoid…

Find the ratio of the measure of the smallest angle of the trapezoid to that of the largest angle.

Slide #7

Ratios in Form a:b Sometimes the ratio of a to b is written in the form a:b. This

form can also be used to compare three of more numbers, like a:b:c.

Example: The measures of the three angles of a triangle are in the ratio 2:2:5. Find the measure of each angle.

Slide #8

Slide #9

Ex. 3: Using Extended Ratios The measures of the angles

in ∆JKL are in the extended ratio 1:2:3. Find the measures of the angles.

Begin by sketching a triangle. Then use the extended ratio of 1:2:3 to label the measures of the angles as x°, 2x°, and 3x°.

3x°

Slide #10

Solution:Statement

x°+ 2x°+ 3x° = 180°

6x = 180

x = 30

Reason

Triangle Sum Theorem

Combine like terms

Divide each side by 6

So, the angle measures are 30°, 2(30°) = 60°, and 3(30°) = 90°.

More examples of a:b Find the ratio and express in simplest form.

Slide #11

Proportion

What it is… A proportion is an equation

stating that ____ ratios are equal.

When three of more ratios are equal, you can write an extended proportion.

What is looks like….

7.2 Properties of Proportions

Slide #15

Slide #16

Using Proportions An equation that

equates two ratios is called a proportion. For instance, if the ratio of a/b is equal to the ratio c/d; then the following proportion can be written:

= Means Extremes

The numbers a and d are the extremes of the proportions. The numbers b and c are the means of the proportion.

Slide #17

Properties of proportions1. CROSS PRODUCT PROPERTY. The

product of the extremes equals the product of the means.

If

= , then ad = bc

Slide #18

Properties of proportions2. RECIPROCAL PROPERTY. If two ratios

are equal, then their reciprocals are also equal.

If = , then = ba

To solve the proportion, you find the value of the variable.

Slide #19

Ex. 4: Solving Proportions

Slide #20

Ex. 5: Solving Proportions

3y + 2

2y=

Write the original proportion.

Cross Product prop.

Distributive Property

Subtract 2y from each side.

3y = 2(y+2)

y = 4

3y = 2y+4
