Yes, the same relationship between the scale factor and area applies to similar triangles. If two triangles are similar, the ratio of their corresponding side lengths (the scale factor) is the same, and the ratio of their areas is the square of the scale factor. For example, if the scale factor is ( k ), then the area ratio will be ( k^2 ). This principle holds true for all similar geometric shapes, including rectangles and triangles.
if any two angles are similar the triangle will be similar
Corresponding sides are congruent with one another, meaning they have the same length/measurement
The vertical cross sections are trapezia or triangles. The horizontal cross sections are rectangles which are mathematically similar to the base.
Nope. You must know what it means to be similar. It means that ALL three angles are the same between two triangles. That been said, you can take any two random triangles, it's very likely that they are NOT similar.
They are said to be similar but not congruent triangles.

If the angles of two triangles are equal the triangles are similar. AAA If you have three angles on both triangles these must be equal for the triangles to be similar. SAS If you have an angle between two sides and the length of the sides and the angle are the same on both triangles, then the triangles are similar. And SSS If you know the three sides

No not all rectangles are similar because the proportions are different.
Two rectangles are seldom but sometimes similar. They can be but they don't have to.

#1 ; 3:2 overa;; ratio is 1.5 : 1 #2 ; 2:1 overall ration is 2:1 Hence triangles are NOT similar.
Pairs of triangles, in general, do not have to be similar.
They are similar triangles.
