True or False: Two figures are scaled copies of one another if the sides are proportional (you multiply all sides of the first figure by the same scale factor to get the sides of the second figure) AND the corresponding angles are equal.

• True

• False

Answer explanation

All sides in the first shape also have to be multiplied by the same scale factor.
