Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Regular polygons: Have all sides and angles equal. The question doesn't mention all sides and angles of the polygons themselves being equal, just the correspondence between two polygons.
  • Congruent polygons: Have equal - length corresponding sides and congruent corresponding angles. But the question only says sides are proportional (not necessarily equal).
  • Similar polygons: By definition, if two polygons have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding side lengths, they are similar.
  • Equilateral polygons: Have all sides equal. This doesn't address the angle - side relationship between two polygons.

Answer:

C. Similar
