Are the following similar? Why or why not?

• Yes. The ratios of the corresponding sides are equal.

• No. The ratios of the corresponding sides are not equal.

Tell whether the two figures are similar. Explain your reasoning.

• Yes, similar because they are the same shape and side lengths are proportional.

• No, not similar because they are the same shape, but side lengths are not proportional.

• Yes, same shape

• No, different sizes

Are the following similar? Why or why not?
