We have the following:

Although the figure is larger or smaller, it conserves two things.

0. The first would be the, shape of the figure,, although it is a square or any other figure, by increasing or decreasing the sides, the shape of the figure does not change.

,

1. The second is the ,relationship of the sides,, that is, since the scale factor is multiplied by each side, they remain proportional.
