Two figures are similar if they have the same shape but not necessarily the same size, which means their corresponding angles are equal, and the lengths of their corresponding sides are proportional. To determine similarity, you can compare the angles of both figures; if all corresponding angles are equal, the figures are similar. Additionally, you can check the ratios of the lengths of corresponding sides; if these ratios are consistent, the figures are also similar.

What are similar figures?

A similar figure is one with the same shape, the same angles, and the same relative dimensions as another. A similar figure may only be different, if at all, by scale size.

What is a proportional figure same shapes different sizes called?

A proportional figure that consists of the same shape but different sizes is called similar figures. In similar figures, corresponding angles are equal, and the lengths of corresponding sides are in proportion. This means that one figure can be obtained from another by scaling it up or down.

The transitive property holds for similar figures?

The transitive property states that if A is equal to B, and B is equal to C, then A is equal to C. In the context of similar figures, this property holds true. If two figures are similar, and one figure is congruent to a third figure, then the second figure is also congruent to the third figure.
