Write the truth value (T/F) of each of the following statements:
Two polygons are similar, if their corresponding sides are proportional.
Two polygons of the same number of sides are similar if their corresponding angles are equal and corresponding sides are proportional.
Hence, nothing can be said about two given polygons when only the sides are proportional is given.
Therefore, the given statement is false.
