All rectangles which have sides in the ratio 10:15 would be similar. This would include 2 x 3, 4 x 6, 100 x 150, etc. Note that similarity in rectangles is very simple, since all interior angles are by definition right angles.

Is a 4X10 rectangle similar to a 5X8?
Two rectangles are similar if and only if their corresponding sides are in proportion. If 4/5 = 10/8, then (4)(8) = (5)(10), because in any proportion the product of the means equals the product of extremes. Since 32≠ 50, the corresponding sides of those rectangles are not in proportion, so that rectangles are not similar.

Are some rectangles similar?
no some rectangles cannot be similar. a rectangle is a shape with 2 = sides and then 2 more different = sides. it is impossible because if 2 rectangles were similar than that would not be a rectangle. similar means having corresponding sides no it is not possible
The width of two similar rectangles are 16 cm and 14 cm what is the ratio of the perimiters?
If two similar rectangles have the widths 16m and 14cm what is the ratio of the perimiters?
How can you use ratios of adjacent sides to prove if two rectangles are similar?
You can use ratios of adjacent sides to prove if two rectangles are similar by comparing to see if the ratios are the same
Find the missing length of two similar rectangles the first one has length n meters and the with 8 meters the second has the length 15 meters ad width 10 meters?
n:8 15:10 n=12
Are all rectangles similar?
No not all rectangles are similar because the proportions are different.

Are all rectangles never similar?
No, not all rectangles are similar because the proportions are different.
Are two rectangles always similar?
Two rectangles are seldom but sometimes similar. They can be but they don't have to.
How do you know if two rectangles are similar?
Two rectangles are similar if corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sides are proportional.
What are some sketches of rectangles with a perimeter of 120?
10 by 50, 15 by 45, 20 by 40.

What is its the width of 2 rectangles that the areas are 15cm2 and 60cm2 the lengt of the first rectangle is 5cm?
I can give the width of one of the rectangles. The first rectangle of area 15 cm2 and length of 5 cm has width of 3 cm. It is impossible to know the width of the other rectangle of area 60 cm2. However, if you had said that the two rectangles were similar, then the dimensions of the second rectangle would be 10 cm X 6 cm. But you didn't say that the two rectangles were similar; so there are infinite possibilities of what the dimensions of the second rectangle might be.
