  1. Self Similar Shapesare mathematically SIMILAR That means that their Angles are equal Side lengths are proportionate Areas are square of the scale factor

  2. Shapes do not tile together to make a similar shape! Not Self Similar! Large shape is not proportionate to tile!

  3. Shapes DO tile together to make a similar shape! That means that their Angles are equal Side lengths are proportionate Areas are square of scale factor

  4. After students have discovered Self-Similar shapes: No!

  5. Yes!

  6. Sides of larger shape are 2 times longer Scale factor is x2 Area increases by a factor of 22 (or 4) Yes!

  7. Not Similar so side lengths and perimeter are not proportionate Angle are not equal No !

  8. WAIT! Yes !

  9. Sides of larger shape are 4 times longer Scale factor is x4 Area increases by a factor of 42 (or 16) Yes!
