Lets first look at the scale facto

Small side large side

--------------- = --------------

small side large side

5 6

------ = ----------

16 24

Checking the cross product

5*24 = 16*6

120=96

This is not a true statement so the sides did not grow by the same scale factor.

The figures are not similar
