What are two figures who have the same shape but different sizes called?
Similar figures.
What is the difference between similar and congruent?
Congruent means two figures have exactly the same shape and size. If the shape is identical, but not the size , two figures are similar.
What is the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures?
scale factor
For two-dimensional polygonal figures to be similar their side lengths must be?
Corresponding
How can you determine when two triangles are similar?
You determine the similarity of two triangles through the equality of each two relevant lines and the equality of each relevant two interior angels.
What are three properties that make two figures mathematically similar?
even,odd,multiple,factor
Can a reflection be used to determine if figures are similar?
yes. if the two figures are the same size and shape, then they are similar
How do you find the dimensions of a figure if you know the dimensions of a similar figure?
If two objects have the same shape, they are called "similar." When two figures are similar, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal. To determine if the triangles shown are similar, compare their corresponding sides.
Write a porpotion that can be used to determine WZ using ratios between the two figures Then determine WC?
To determine WZ using ratios between two similar figures, you can set up the proportion as follows: ( \frac{WZ}{AB} = \frac{WX}{AC} ), where AB and AC are corresponding sides of the two figures. If you know the lengths of AB and AC, you can rearrange the equation to find WZ: ( WZ = \frac{WX \cdot AB}{AC} ). To determine WC, you would need to use a similar proportion involving the sides that relate to WC and the corresponding sides of the figures.
What are features that make two planar figures similar?
If all angles of two polygons are the same the figures are similar (irrespective of rotation).
How do you know if a figure is similar to another one?
Two figures are similar if they have the same shape but not necessarily the same size, which means their corresponding angles are equal, and the lengths of their corresponding sides are proportional. To determine similarity, you can compare the angles of both figures; if all corresponding angles are equal, the figures are similar. Additionally, you can check the ratios of the lengths of corresponding sides; if these ratios are consistent, the figures are also similar.
Can two figures be congruent but not similar?
no because if they are conmgruent then they are similar
How are corresponding side lengths two similar figures related?
Corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional.
What two pieces of data are needed to mathematically determine density?
To mathematically determine density, you need the mass of the object or substance and its volume. The density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume.
How do you mathematically determine who wins a turn between two fictitious characters?
The question is so generic as to be meaningless. What game? Why does it matter that the players are fictitious? Why do you think it's possible/necessary to "mathematically determine" the winner?
How can you tell if two figures are similar?
Two figures are similar if: - The measures of their corresponding angles are equal. - The ratios of the lengths of the corresponding sides are proportional.
What does the word similar mean mathematically?
In mathematics, the term "similar" typically refers to shapes or figures that have the same form but may differ in size. Two geometric figures are considered similar if their corresponding angles are equal and the lengths of their corresponding sides are proportional. This concept is often used in geometry, particularly in the study of triangles and other polygons. Similarity can also extend to other mathematical contexts, such as similar matrices in linear algebra.
