When two shapes have proportionally equivalent lengths and angles, they are geometrically similar.
For example, take a triangle with sides of length 3, 4, and 5.
Another triangle with side lengths 6, 8, and 10 would be geometrically similar to it because its angles are the same and its side lengths are proportional.
