3. What is Similarity
You are at the right place if you need help with Similarity. In this section you will learn what Similarity is and how you can use a scale factor to find lengths of similar figures. Before you start I want you to think about the question whether the two telephone booths are similar or not. I also want you to take a moment and think about the difference between congruence and similarity. Make sure to study all maths example questions for I will also explain to you how to calculate the Area and Volume of Similar Figures. Make sure that during your maths revision you have a clear understanding of what similarity is. Could you give me a definition of what similarity is? Similar figures are figures which corresponding angles are equal is size and which corresponding sides are in proportion. Check my maths example questions and you will understand everything about Similarity which will help you to pass you IGCSE GCSE maths exam. Good luck and have fun!
