Question

figures that have the same shape but not necessarily the same size are called figures.
options: similar, proportional, extended, congruent, scale factor

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To solve this, we recall the definitions:

  • "Similar" figures have the same shape (corresponding angles equal, corresponding sides in proportion) but not necessarily the same size.
  • "Proportional" refers to a relationship between quantities, not a figure type.
  • "Extended" is not a term for figure classification.
  • "Congruent" figures have the same shape and size.
  • "Scale factor" is a ratio, not a figure type. So the correct term is "similar".

Answer:

similar
