    2 a Explain why these two shapes are similar.


    b Give the ratio of the sides.
    c Which angle corresponds to angle C?
    d Which side corresponds to side QP?

    3 In the diagrams below, find the lengths of the sides marked x.


    Each pair of shapes is similar but not drawn to scale.
