Two rectangles are similar if and only if their corresponding sides are in proportion.
If 4/5 = 10/8, then (4)(8) = (5)(10), because in any proportion the product of the means equals the product of extremes. Since 32≠ 50, the corresponding sides of those rectangles are not in proportion, so that rectangles are not similar.

Is a square and rectangle similar to a trapiziod?
Similar polygons have congruent angles and the same shape (but not necessarily the same size). Since the shape of a square and a rectangle is different from the shape of a trapezoid, they are not similar to it.
