Are all circles similar and y?
First let me point out the difference between similarity and congruence. Let me consider 2 identical circles that have been drawn on 2 separate tracing papers, now imagine that i overlap the 2 tracing papers. Will you now only see one? Yes! Hence we can say they are congruent. But if i consider 2 different circles, on the tracing paper, it won't turn out so well. But we would notice that they would be IDENTICAL if we resize one of them (assuming they are in the same orientation). That is the most simplest way i can explain the difference and in that way, hopefully what it means to be similar. ----------------------------------------------- NOW moving back to the question... imagine 2 different circles, even though they are different, we will still observe that the are identical if, again we resize one of them. Hence all circle are similar no matter how big or small. Because, when it comes to comparing shapes based on similarity, size doesn't matter. (from someone who has just done a math chapter on similarities and congruence of triangles)
How do you use 4 identical isosceles triangles to make an isosceles triangle?
Here is one way: /\ --- /\/\ ----- These are {45°, 45°, 90°} triangles. There are 3 on the bottom row, and 1 on top. Actually, any four identical isosceles triangles would work.
How unique am I?
Every one is unique in there own special way. you are the only one like you. Even if you have an identical twin. there are still many, many ways that the two of you are different, even if you can't think of any.
How London and Los Angles are similar and how they are different?
They are different because one is in america and another one is in england both longitude and latitude are different they are similar in a way that both are major cities and both attract tourist
What is the role of identical twin studies?
One aim is to provide more information on the "Nature/Nurture" debate: how much of a person's character is genetically pre-determined (nature) and how much is influenced by the way in which they are brought up (nurture).
