Two geometrical figures are similar if one can be obtained from the other by a uniform scaling (enlarging or shrinking) while maintaining the same shape. Specifically, two polygons are similar if they have the same corresponding angles and proportional side lengths, and two triangles are similar if they have the same three angles. The similarity of figures is denoted with a tilde symbol such as ΔABC ~ ΔDEF for similar triangles.
2. SIMILARITY OF FIGURES
Two geometrical objects are called similar
if one is the result of a uniform scaling
(enlarging or shrinking) of the other.
3. SIMILARITY OF FIGURES
Two geometrical objects are called similar
if one is the result of a uniform scaling
(enlarging or shrinking) of the other.
One can be obtained from the other by
uniformly "stretching", possibly with
additional rotation
4. SIMILARITY OF FIGURES
Bothhave the same shape, or additionally
the other is mirror image of the first i.e.,
one has the same shape as the mirror
image of the other .
