scale factor
The ratio of the lengths of their corresponding sides.
You would look at the side lengths and the scale factor to find a pair of similar figures :)

The number used to multiply the lengths of a figure to create a larger or smaller similar image is called the scale factor. It is a ratio that represents the proportional relationship between the corresponding sides of two similar figures.
The scale factor will depend on the side lengths. (Angle measures of the figures will be identical.) For example, if the smaller side had a length of 5 and the larger side had a length of 10 the ratio of the two figures would be 1:2.
Scale factor can enlarge or decrease SIDE lengths, however, angle measurements will not change. Scaling creates similar figures.
The perimeter will scale by the same factor.
The area scale factor is the square of the side length scale factor.
For a, it tells you how many times the side lengths grew or shrunk.For b, it tells you that the perimeter grows or shrinks: scale factor times original perimeter.For c, it tells you that the area grows or shrinks: scale factor squared times the original area.
Perimeter will scale by the same factor. Area of the new figure, however is the original figures area multiplied by the scale factor squared. .
