A square of identical shape but not size is similar. For example, a square is always a square, whether big or small. Or, a box with 4 sides with exactly the same top and bottom will be similar, but these similar or identical boxes can be tiny....or huge. A circle will be similar to other circles, but size could differ.
No. Two regular hexagons are always similar to each other, but two random hexagons are not necessarily similar.
Parallelogram
always
Because the figures are said to be similar to each other and retain the same angles
Similar shapes need to have the same number of sides, the same angles and the ratio of the sides needs to be the same. Rectangles are not always similar to each other because they can have different dimensions, which would break the "same ratio" rule.

When they have the same interior angles and their sides are proportional to each other.
They are congruent. Figures that only have the same size or only have the same shape as each other are "similar".
the figures are similar. Find the value of each variable. solve

Take the triangle for instance, there are 3 types. One is the same on each side which is the equilateral. But the other 2 types are flat on 2 sides and diagonal on the other side.
Yes, in similar triangles, the angles are always congruent, and the sides have the same proportions to each other.

Sometimes.
If two figures are similar or congruent, each angle of the first figure is the same as the corresponding angle of the second figure.In similar figures, the ratio of each side in the first figure to the corresponding side in the second figure is a constant. If the figures are congruent, that ratio is 1: that is, the corresponding sides are of the same measure.
