Answer:

Polygon WXYZ is the same shape and size as polygon ABCD. Each side of WXYZ is double the length of ABCD. The ratio of the length of each side of WXYZ to its corresponding side of ABCD is 2. A characteristic of figures that have the same shape is that ratios of corresponding sides are equal.
