When polygons have the same shape but may be different
in size.
Similar PolygonsSimilar Polygons
Two polygons are similar if their corresponding angles are
congruent and the measures of their
corresponding sides are
proportional.

Rectangle WXYZ is similar to rectangle PQRS with a scale
factor of 1.5. If the length and width of PQRS are 10
meters and 4 meters, respectively, what are the
length and width of rectangle WXYZ?
The scale on the map of New Mexico is 1 centimeter = 80 miles. The distance on the
map across New Mexico from east to west through Albuquerque is 4.1 centimeters. How long
would it take to drive across New Mexico if you
drove at an average of 70 miles per hour?
