How is constructing a perpendicular bisector similar to constructing an angle bisector?
No. Well... kind of because they are both bisections. The difference is that the angle bisector splits an angle in half, while a perpendicular bisector creates a right angle from a horizontal line. They both "split" something in half.
Which polygons are not similar?
Any two polygons with a different number of sides are not similar.
What determines if two polygons are congruent?
similar polygons may not be congruent (different sizes) congruent polygons are always similar (equal in every geometric respect - including
Are any two regular polygons with the same number of sides similar?
Yes, regular polygons will have all sides equal length, and all angles the same. If two polygons of the same number of sides are 'regular' then those two polygons will be similar (they may be scaled, for example).
If two polygons are similar then the corresponding sides must be?
Similar
When constructing inscribed polygons and parallel lines how are the steps similar?
When constructing inscribed polygons and parallel lines, both processes typically start with a defined point or baseline to guide the construction. Each step in both methods often involves using a compass and straightedge to create specific geometric relationships, such as equal distances or angles. Additionally, both constructions require careful attention to maintain accuracy and alignment, ensuring that each subsequent step builds upon the previous one correctly. Ultimately, both constructions are rooted in the principles of geometric congruence and precision.

What does it mean to have similar polygons?
it means that the polygons are similar not exact
What polygons are always similar?
Regular polygons.
Which polygons are not similar?
Any two polygons with a different number of sides are not similar.
Are these polygons similar?
these polygons arent similar one is turned sideways... * * * * * Don't know which polygons but turning sideways does not affect similarity
Two polygons with same shape not size?
The polygons are said to be similar.
Are the polygons similar?
yes
Does similar polygons always have the same area?
no. similar polygons do not have the same area. similar just means that they have the same angle measurements and are proportional.
What determines if two polygons are congruent?
similar polygons may not be congruent (different sizes) congruent polygons are always similar (equal in every geometric respect - including
The corresponding sides of two similar regular polygons must have equal lenghts?
Yes, the corresponding sides of two similar regular polygons must have equal lengths. This is because both the polygons are similar, which means that since they are also polygons, they must have equal lengths.
Do two polygons which are similar have the same shape?
Similar polygons are polygons for which all corresponding angles are congruent and all corresponding sides are proportional. From this definition we can say they have the same shape.
