By definition, two polygons are similar if and only if their corresponding angles are congruent and there is a proportional relationship among the measures of the corresponding sides.
if corresponding sides and '' = and the large polygon has area , than the area of the small polygon ' will be:
:' =:''
:'= '*= '*= '= '=
