Similar means it has the same lengths to a scale

|dw:1404534484340:dw| These triangles are similar. One triangle has lengths 3,4,5 and the other one is 6,8,10 The bigger one just has lengths that are twice the size of the other triangle, or has a conversion factor of 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, tell me why you think it's a and I'll show the way

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the lengths are in the same range but lower
