Verifying Similar FiguresTwo figures are similar if they have the exact same shape and their corresponding sides are proportional. The corresponding sidelengths of the two figures are related by a scale factor.A scale factor is the constant number you can multiply any side length in one figure by to find the corresponding side length of thesimilar figure.Figure AFigure BIn this problem, you will verify that the two rectangles are similar and find the scale factor from each figure to the other. Sincerectangles have two sets of equal parallel sides, we will only need to find the ratios for two sets of sides; the horizontal and verticallengths. If these ratios are equal, the rectangles are similar.Note: In some cases, the simplified and unsimplifed ratios may be equal.
