Take a closer look at the three similar triangles animated previously:
From these three similar triangles, several similarity statements can be written.
When writing a similarity statement, it is important to remember that the order of the vertices must be written so that the corresponding vertices are in the same order.
Write two similarity statements for ΔABC: one for the smaller triangle created by the altitude, and one for the larger triangle created by the altitude.
Smaller triangle: ΔABC ~ Δ________
Larger triangle: ΔABC ~ Δ_________
