(i) Since all circles have centre and circumference, therefore all circles are similar.

Hence Similar

Hence Similar

(iii) In equilateral triangle each angle is $60^{\circ}$ therefore all equilateral triangles are similar.

 

Hence equilateral

(iv) Two triangles are similar, if their corresponding angles are equal.

(v) Two triangles are similar, if their corresponding sides are Proportional.

(vi) Two polygons of same number of sides are similar, if (a) their corresponding angles are equal and (b) their corresponding sides are Proportional.
