Q.11. Two triangles are said to be similar , if
(i)	All the corresponding angles are equal
(ii)	All the corresponding sides are proportional.
Q.12.Basic proportionality theorem (Thales theorem ). In a triangle , if a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle it divides the other two sides in the same ratio,

              i.e., if in 
 ABC ,  DE||   BC , then 
 = 
Q.13.CONVERSE OF BASIC PROPORTIONALITY THEOREM : In a triangle , if a line divides the two sides in the same ratio , then line is parallel to the third side .
 i. e ., in 
 ABC , if DE  is a line such that 
 = 
 =   , then  DE||   BC
 Q. 14. If two triangles are similar , then the ratio of their areas is equal to the ratio of the squares  of their corresponding sides .i.e., if 
 ABC 
  
 DEF Then
 
 =
 = 
 = 
Q. 15. PYTHAGORAS THEOREM :In a right angled triangle , the square of the hypotenuse is equal to sum of the squares of the other two sides .
Q. 16. CONVERSE OF THE PYTHAGORAS THEOREM : In a triangle , if square of one side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides , then triangle is right angled .
