# The students need to develop an intuitive understanding of the concept “similarity of figures”.
# The students need understand that 'corresponding' means matching and 'congruent' means equal in measure.
# They should be able to determine the correspondences between the pairs of similar triangles.
# The ratio of the corresponding sides is called the ratio of simultude or scale factor.
# In mathematics, polygons are similar if their corresponding angles are congruent and the ratio of their corresponding sides are in proportion.
# They should be able to state and apply the definition of similar polygons.
# recognize and apply “corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional”.
