What is the the relationship between two geometric figures that look “alike” but have different “sizes”?
Working with similar figures involves ratio and proportion.

A ratio is a way that quantities can be divided or shared. It is an expression that compares two numbers by division. You are already familiar with ratios that are used in everyday situations. You use a ratio in art when you mix paint colors, on a map when you read the map scales, and in cooking when you use the ratios of ingredients.

Use 1 shovel of cement to 3 shovels of sand
Use 3 parts blue paint to 1 part white

We define ratio as :An expression that compares
two quantities by division.
If a and b are 2 numbers, where
, then the ratio of a to b is written as
. It can also be written as a:b or a is to
b.

The order in which a ratio is written or stated is important.
The ratio of Macbooks to iPod Touch’s sold last Christmas is:
2:9
Macbooks 2Touch 9

A proportion is a mathematical sentence that states that two ratios are equivalent.
It is a statement of equality between 2 ratios.
It is used in solving problems that involve comparison of similar objects or situations.
Example:a cb d

Each number in a proportion is called a term.
The second and third terms are called the means.
The first and fourth terms are called the extremes of the proportion.
a (first term) c (third term)b (second term) d (fourth term)
a:b c:d

A proportion can be viewed as a multiplicative relationship. In proportional situations the quantities between or across measure spaces always are related by multiplication.

Example 2:
a cb d
a x k cb x k d
a cb d
ad bca cb d

1. In a triangle, each side measures 12 cm, 16 cm, and 18 cm, respectively. In lowest terms, find the ratios of the lengths of the sides.
2. The ratio of two supplementary angles is
2 to 3. Find the measure of each angle.

According to Discovering Geometry by M. Serra, figures that have the same shape but not necessarily the same size are similar.
Can we refine this definition?

TRIVIA: The symbol for
similarity “~” is called a “tilde”, or sometimes
“twiddle”.

We define similar polygons in Geometry as polygons having the same shape; specifically having congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding sides.
