Two polygons are similar if all of the following conditions apply: they have the same number of sides; corresponding sides are always in the same ratio; all angles are congruent. For shapes in general, I suspect the definition of similarity is somewhat more complicated.

two geometrical object are called similar if they both have the same shape, or one has the same shape as the mirror image of the other
Similar means they are of the same shape but not necessary the same size. two figure are congruents when they are of the same shape and size. congruent figures can be similar but not similar figures aren't always congruent
