Is having the same angle measurement enough to make two figures similar?
Yes, if the angles are the same the two figues are similar. The side lengths don't have to be the same.
Explain why similar figures are not always congruent?
similar figures have the same angles but not necessarily the same side lengths
What does the scale factor between two similar figures tell you about the side lengths?
It tells you how many times the side length will grow or shrink.
Are all similar figures are congruent?
No because Similar figures are the same shape, angles, and types but not lengths. Congruent means EXACTLY the same in everything.
What information does the scale factor give us about two similar figures?
The ratio of the lengths of their corresponding sides.
Is having the same angle measurement enough to make two figures similar?
Yes, if the angles are the same the two figues are similar. The side lengths don't have to be the same.
How are corresponding side lengths two similar figures related?
Corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional.
Explain why similar figures are not always congruent?
similar figures have the same angles but not necessarily the same side lengths
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 is the difference between congruent and similar figures?
Congruent figures have exactly the same shape; you could superimpose one on the other and see only one figure. Similar figures have some points of similarity but do not have to be exactly the same.
What does the scale factor between two similar figures tell you about the side lengths?
It tells you how many times the side length will grow or shrink.
Do similar figures always have corresponding angles that are equil?
Yes, similar figures always have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding side lengths.
Are all similar figures are congruent?
No because Similar figures are the same shape, angles, and types but not lengths. Congruent means EXACTLY the same in everything.
For two-dimensional polygonal figures to be similar their side lengths must be?
Corresponding
What makes to two figures similar?
When they have the same interior angles but different side lengths
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 is the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures?
scale factor
