Complete the following activities:
1. Determine whether the shapes given below are always, sometimes, or never similar. Briefly explain your
answers. (Hint: The scale factor might be useful for some of these.)
1. A large circle and a smaller circle.
2. A large ellipse (oval) and a smaller ellipse.
3. Two rectangles.
4. Two *golden* rectangles.
5. Two pentagons.
6. Two *regular* pentagons.
7. A regular pentagon and a regular hexagon.
8. Two isosceles triangles.
2. Determine if the statement "If and are similar and and are similar, then and must also be

3. On Geoge
a place an a
itrary point and label it O and place a square near it using the regular polygon
tool. Use the steps outlined in the text and learning material to make apply a spiral similarity centered at
O to the square that is *not* equivalent to a central similarity then apply the same spiral similarity to the
esulting square. Make sure to remove any intermediate shapes you need to make the spiral similarity.
Paste the picture of the finished construction into your homework document and then tell what your angle
of rotation and stretching factor is.
