1) What has to be the same in order for two parallelograms to be similar?

The things that half to be the same in order for parallelograms to e similar are the angles and the ratios.


2) Describe a way to find a missing side length in a pair of similar figures.

A way to find the missing sde length in a pair of similar figures is to find the SF of the other sides and then times it or divide it to get the missing side lengths

3) I have a small isosceles triangle with a base of 3 inches and other sides are 4 inches.I want to create a similar isosceles triangle with a base of 7.5 inches.What should the other side lengths be and why?

The other side lengths should be 10 because if you find the scale factor from 7.5 divided by 3 and you get 2.5 you can do 4 times 2.5 and finally get 10
