Is a trapezoid always similar to a parallelogram?
No. In fact, it is NEVER similar.
How are a rhombus similar to a parallelogram?
Rhombus is to parallelogram as square is to rectangle. I hope this simple analogy helps
How is the height of a parallelogram similar and different from the width of a rectangle?
The width of a rectangle is the same as one of its sides. That is not [usually] the case for a parallelogram.

If two parallelograms are similar what do you know about the ratios of the two side lengths within one parallelograms and the ratios of the correspondingside lengths in the other parallelogram?
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.
