If two parallelograms are similar what do you know about the ratios of the two side lengths within one parallelograms and the ratios of the correspondingside lengths in the other parallelogram?

If and when two parallelograms are similar, you know that the ratio of two side lengths within one parallelogram will describe the relationship between the corresponding side lengths in a similar parallelogram. If and when two parallelograms are similar, you know that the ratio of corresponding side lengths in the other parallelogram will give you the scale factor that relates each side length in one parallelogram to the corresponding side length in a similar parallelogram.

If two parallelograms are similar then the corresponding angles are what?
If two parallelograms are similar then the corresponding angles are EQUAL.
Are parallelograms similar?
No,they are not similar
Can two triangles be similar but not congruent?
Yes. The triangles have the same angle measures but different, similar side lengths. Think of two different sized equilateral triangles. One can have side lengths of 6 inches while the other has side lengths of 20 inches, but they still have congruent angles of 60 degrees. Each ratio of side lengths is equal [6/20=6/20=6/20].

Are parallelograms and trapezoids always similar?
yes * * * * * Never. A parallelogram has two pairs of equal angles opposite one another. A trapezoid does not.

no
In what way is a rectangle similar to a parallelogram?
Every rectangle is a parallelogram. The description of a parallelogram is: -- a figure that lies in a single plane -- it has four sides -- opposite sides are parallel -- opposite sides have equal lengths -- alternate angles are equal Every rectangle satisfies this description.
What is the negation of the statement Squares are parallelogram?
Squares are people with no life. Parallelograms have two sets of sides that are each parallell to the respective opposite side. People do not have two sets of sides, nor are humanic sides parallel. Therfore, a square is not similar/congruent/equal to a parallelogram.
Are all parallelograms similar?
they are not
Which quadrilaterals are always similar to each other?
Parallelogram
How are parallelograms and trapezoids similar?
they both have 4 sides
The statement two parallelograms are similar is always never or sometimes true?
It is sometimes true that two parallelograms are similar. The could be congruent, or dissimilar in that one is not an enlargement of the other.
Are a parallelogram and trapezoid similar?
No. They cannot be similar because a parallelogram has two pairs of sides with equal length. A parallelogram cannot have more than one pair.
