The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "All squares are", we need to analyze the properties of squares and determine the correct relationship among them based on the given options. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Squares**: - A square is a quadrilateral with all four sides equal in length and all angles equal to 90 degrees. 2. **Properties of Squares**: - Since all sides of a square are equal, if we have two squares, let’s say square A (with side length 'a') and square B (with side length 'b'), we can express their sides as: - Square A: AB = a, BC = a, CD = a, DA = a - Square B: PQ = b, QR = b, RS = b, SP = b 3. **Ratio of Sides**: - The ratio of the sides of the squares can be expressed as: - \( \frac{AB}{PQ} = \frac{a}{b} \) - \( \frac{BC}{QR} = \frac{a}{b} \) - \( \frac{CD}{RS} = \frac{a}{b} \) - \( \frac{DA}{SP} = \frac{a}{b} \) - Since all these ratios are equal, we can conclude that the ratios of the corresponding sides of the squares are constant. 4. **Conclusion on Similarity**: - Because the ratios of the corresponding sides of the squares are constant, we can say that the two squares are similar. - In geometry, two figures are similar if their corresponding angles are equal and the lengths of corresponding sides are proportional. 5. **Final Answer**: - Therefore, we conclude that "All squares are similar".
