Do you know the definition of similar polygons?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no the figures are not similar because they would have congruent angles measures but they don't

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if two conditions are satisfied: All pairs of corresponding angles are congruent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So is the answer A?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Similar: To have the exact same shape and sizes that are related by some ratio. So the shape matters but not the size. Congruent: Similar, but also the same size. So both matter. Yah, because the angles are not the same, it is neither similar nor congruent and the best answer is A.
