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 is a similar polygon?
There cannot be a similar polygon by itself. One polygon is similar to another if all of their corresponding angles are equal. This requires that the lengths of corresponding sides are in the same ratio: that is, if one polygon is a dilation of the other.
How do you write out a similarity statement with polygons?
Two polygons are similar if:the ratio of the lengths of their corresponding sides is the same, andtheir corresponding angles are equal.
The ratio of the lengths of two corresponding sides of two similar polygons is called the?
The scale or scaling factor.
How are corresponding side lengths two similar figures related?
Corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional.
What are the corresponding side lengths of a similar figure?
Proportional.
Give the definition of similar triangle?
Similar triangles means they have the same lengths OR the corresponding lengths have equal ratios.
If two polygons are similar then the ratio of their perimeter is equal to the ratios of their corresponding sides lenghts?
If two polygons are similar then the ratio of their perimeter is equal to the ratios of their corresponding sides lenghts?
Do similar shapes always have to have corresponding sides that are proportional?
Yes, similar figures always have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding side lengths.
Do similar figures always have corresponding angles that are equil?
Yes, similar figures always have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding side lengths.
How can you tell if two triangles are similar?
Their corresponding angles are equal, or the ratio of the lengths of their corresponding sides is the same.
Can corresponding sides be different lengths?
Yes, in the context of similar shapes.
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.
Triangles hij and mno are similar the perimeter of smaller triangle hij is 44 the lengths of two corresponding sides on the triangles are 13 and 26 what is the perimeter of mno?
Let the perimeter of the triangle MNO be x.Since the perimeters of similar polygons have the same ratio as any two corresponding sides, we have13/26 = 44/x (cross multiply)13x =1,144 (divide both sides by 13)x = 88Or since 13/26 = 1/2, the perimeter of the triangle MNO is twice the perimeter of the triangle HIJ, which is 88.
How can you find perimeter of two similar figures?
You need to find the perimeter of one by adding together the lengths of all its sides. The perimeter of the similar shape is the answer multiplied by the similarity ratio.
If two parallelograms are similar what do you know about the ratios of the two side lengths within one parallelograms and the ratios of the correspondingside lengths in the other parallelogram?
If and when two parallelograms are similar, you know that the ratio of two side lengths within one parallelogram will describe the relationship between the corresponding side lengths in a similar parallelogram. If and when two parallelograms are similar, you know that the ratio of corresponding side lengths in the other parallelogram will give you the scale factor that relates each side length in one parallelogram to the corresponding side length in a similar parallelogram.
