Here is the matching of the vocabulary words to their definitions:

1. **Scale Factor** - the ratio between the size of an actual object and a representation of that object.

2. **Corresponding Sides** - the sides in similar figures that are in proportion and are in the same position.

3. **Similar** - describes two figures that have equal corresponding angle measures and proportional sides.

4. **Proportion** - an equation in which two ratios are equal to each other.

5. **Corresponding Angles** - the angles in similar figures that have the same measure and are in the same position.

6. **Dilation** - increasing or decreasing the size of a shape.

This matches each vocabulary word with its appropriate definition.
