Answer:
1. Two figures are said to be similar if they are the same shape. In more mathematical language, two figures are similar if their corresponding angles are congruent , and the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal.
2. parallelogram is a special type of quadrilateral that has equal and parallel opposite sides.
The given figure shows a parallelogram ABCD which as AB parallel to CD and AD parallel to BC.
parallelogram is a special type of quadrilateral that has equal and parallel opposite sides.
Also, AD = BC and AB = CD.
3.If two pairs of corresponding angles in a pair of triangles are congruent, then the triangles are similar. We know this because if two angle pairs are the same, then the third pair must also be equal. When the three angle pairs are all equal, the three pairs of sides must also be in proportion.
4. (a) Mapping of the globe is based on similliarity principles.
(b)The DNA finger prints ,exploring similliarity principles are used in finding the criminals from the crime spots.
(c)The demonstration model of events basing on similiarity of objects are useful in making the actual events to be successful.
(d) The use of height & distance techniques base on similiarity of ∆s is used to measure the dimensions of distance objects through telescopes.
(e) The plans of the buildings have notional identifications on similiarity prior actual construction.
(f)The photographs of objects have the dimensional similiarity based on frame ratio.
5. Similar figures are proportional, so when two polygons are similar, the ratios of their corresponding sides are all equal. Similar figures can be used to solve certain problems in architecture, engineering, building, and many other areas.
Step-by-step explanation:
the figure in the picture was a parallelogram
