Only if they both have the same ratio of length to width.
Since every square has the same ratio of length to width ( it's 1 ),
all squares are similar.
Gee, when you think about it, every regular polygon is similar to every other
regular polygon with the same number of sides. I never realized that.

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

what is the lateral faces of a rectangular prism?
They are all rectangles (or 2 squares and 4 rectangles).They are all rectangles (or 2 squares and 4 rectangles).They are all rectangles (or 2 squares and 4 rectangles).They are all rectangles (or 2 squares and 4 rectangles).
Are every two rectangles similar?
Every rectangle is similar in that they both have 4 sides, they both have 4 angles, and they both have 2 sides equalling one length and the other 2 sides equalling a shorter length. Every two rectangles are similar in a way but they are not all exactly the same.
What rectangles are similar to a 10 by 15?
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.

Are all rectangles similar?
No not all rectangles are similar because the proportions are different.
If 2 rectangles have the same area will they always be similar?
No some times
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.

There are two rectangles what are the ratio of the first to the second?
I guess you mean the ratio of the areas; it depends if the 2 rectangles are "similar figures"; that is their matching sides are in the same ratio. If they are similar then the ratio of their areas is the square of the ratio of the sides.

How to know if two rectangles are similar if you are given boths legnth sides((RECT1 L.S 3CM& S.S2CM)(RECT2 L.S 2CM& S.S1CM)) of these two rectangles?
#1 ; 3:2 overa;; ratio is 1.5 : 1 #2 ; 2:1 overall ration is 2:1 Hence triangles are NOT similar.
Are all golden rectangles similar?
yes all golden rectangles are simalar as well as their ratios
