Can a reflection be used to determine if figures are similar?
yes. if the two figures are the same size and shape, then they are similar
How do you find the dimensions of a figure if you know the dimensions of a similar figure?
If two objects have the same shape, they are called "similar." When two figures are similar, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal. To determine if the triangles shown are similar, compare their corresponding sides.
Can two figures be congruent but not similar?
no because if they are conmgruent then they are similar
What is the definition of a scale factor?
The ratio of any two corresponding similar geometric figures lengths in two . Note: The ratio of areas of two similar figures is the square of the scale factor. The ratio of volumes of two similar figures is the cube of the scale factor. .... (: hope it helped (: .....
What are not always true if two figures are similar?
That their sides are congruent.

How can you determine mathematically if two figures are similar?
If the two figures are the same shape. Also if the ratios of the lengths of the corresponding sides are equal.

What are features that make two planar figures similar?
If all angles of two polygons are the same the figures are similar (irrespective of rotation).
Can two figures be congruent but not similar?
no because if they are conmgruent then they are similar
How are corresponding side lengths two similar figures related?
Corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional.
How can you tell if two figures are similar?
Two figures are similar if: - The measures of their corresponding angles are equal. - The ratios of the lengths of the corresponding sides are proportional.
What does it mean for two figures to be congruent?
Similar
Do two similar figures have to have the same size?
No.
If two figures are similar then are they also congruent?
No. Two figures are similar if they have same shape, and all the angles are equal; but they can have the sides of different sizes. I mean, similar figures may have different sizes, but must have the same shape.
What are two figures who have the same shape but different sizes called?
Similar figures.
What is the definition of a scale factor?
The ratio of any two corresponding similar geometric figures lengths in two . Note: The ratio of areas of two similar figures is the square of the scale factor. The ratio of volumes of two similar figures is the cube of the scale factor. .... (: hope it helped (: .....
