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.

What is the dimension of a similar figure?

The dimension of a similar figure refers to the number of measurable extents it possesses, such as length, width, and height. Similar figures maintain the same shape but may differ in size, meaning their corresponding dimensions are proportional. For example, if one figure is two times larger than another, all linear dimensions of the larger figure are twice those of the smaller figure. Thus, the dimensionality remains the same; both figures are two-dimensional or three-dimensional, depending on their nature.
