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.
how are trapezoids and rectangles
no some rectangles cannot be similar. a rectangle is a shape with 2 = sides and then 2 more different = sides. it is impossible because if 2 rectangles were similar than that would not be a rectangle. similar means having corresponding sides no it is not possible
If two similar rectangles have the widths 16m and 14cm what is the ratio of the perimiters?
You can use ratios of adjacent sides to prove if two rectangles are similar by comparing to see if the ratios are the same
n:8 15:10 n=12

No not all rectangles are similar because the proportions are different.
No, not all rectangles are similar because the proportions are different.
Two rectangles are seldom but sometimes similar. They can be but they don't have to.
Two rectangles are similar if corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sides are proportional.
10 by 50, 15 by 45, 20 by 40.
I can give the width of one of the rectangles. The first rectangle of area 15 cm2 and length of 5 cm has width of 3 cm. It is impossible to know the width of the other rectangle of area 60 cm2. However, if you had said that the two rectangles were similar, then the dimensions of the second rectangle would be 10 cm X 6 cm. But you didn't say that the two rectangles were similar; so there are infinite possibilities of what the dimensions of the second rectangle might be.

yes all golden rectangles are simalar as well as their ratios
There are 15 rectangles.
