Similar triangles means they have the same lengths OR the corresponding lengths have equal ratios.
Their corresponding angles are equal, or the ratio of the lengths of their corresponding sides is the same.
Yes, in the context of similar shapes.
Let the perimeter of the triangle MNO be x.Since the perimeters of similar polygons have the same ratio as any two corresponding sides, we have13/26 = 44/x (cross multiply)13x =1,144 (divide both sides by 13)x = 88Or since 13/26 = 1/2, the perimeter of the triangle MNO is twice the perimeter of the triangle HIJ, which is 88.
Assuming you are already sure that the two objects are, indeed, similar: You measure corresponding lengths of the two objects, and divide.You measure the lengths of a pair of corresponding sides. The scale factor is the ratio of the two measures.
It is the same.
Corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional.
Proportional.

If two polygons are similar then the ratio of their perimeter is equal to the ratios of their corresponding sides lenghts?
Yes, similar figures always have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding side lengths.
Yes, similar figures always have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding side lengths.
Their corresponding angles are equal, or the ratio of the lengths of their corresponding sides is the same.
Yes, in the context of similar shapes.
Two figures are similar if: - The measures of their corresponding angles are equal. - The ratios of the lengths of the corresponding sides are proportional.

If and when two parallelograms are similar, you know that the ratio of two side lengths within one parallelogram will describe the relationship between the corresponding side lengths in a similar parallelogram. If and when two parallelograms are similar, you know that the ratio of corresponding side lengths in the other parallelogram will give you the scale factor that relates each side length in one parallelogram to the corresponding side length in a similar parallelogram.
