The three requirements to be similar figures are: Corresponding angles must be congruent (equal in measure). Corresponding sides are in proportion; this means that the ratio of corresponding side lengths is the same for all sides. The figures have the same shape, but can be of different sizes.
Yes. The polygons must be congruent. They must have an even number of sides and angles. -alessandra
YesFor two triangles to be congruent, their corresponding sides must be of equal length. But for triangles to be similar, they must only have equal angles. For there to be a SAS postulate for similarity, the two corresponding sides would have to be proportionate, not equal. If they were equal, the triangles would be congruent.So, an SAS postulate for similar triangles would mean that two of the sides of the smaller triangle are, for example, half the two corresponding sides of the other triangle. If also the corresponding included angles are equal, then the two triangles would be similar triangles.APEX: similar
Nothing else, the angle-angle-side is sufficient to show the triangles are congruent. With two corresponding angles are equal, the third angles in the triangles by definition (the sum of the three angles in a triangle is 180o) must be equal making the triangles similar. If a corresponding pair of sides are also equal, then the other two corresponding pairs of sides will be equal.
No, similar pentagons (or any polygon for that matter) must have corresponding congruent angles and all sides must be proportional to its corresponding sides. For example, if a square with a triangle on it is a pentagon, then a regular pentagon would not be similar to it (because corresponding angles are not congruent).
They are simply two congruent parallelograms.
If two rectangles are similar, they have corresponding sides and corresponding angles. Corresponding sides must have the same ratio.

yes it is ture
Sometimes. Remember, in order for two polygons to be similar, their angles must be congruent, and their corresponding sides must be proportional. In a rhombus, it is always possible for the angles to differ.
