Congruent figures in geometry are identical in shape and size. But not all similar shapes have congruency. Dilating one of two congruent shapes creates similar figures, but it prevents congruency.

Is congruent figures are always similar?
Are congruent figures always similar? Yes.
What are not always true if two figures are similar?
That their sides are congruent.
Can congruent figures be similar figures?
All congruent figures are similar figures, and have identical sizes.
How do you compare and contrast congruent and similar?
Similar means they are of the same shape but not necessary the same size. two figure are congruents when they are of the same shape and size. congruent figures can be similar but not similar figures aren't always congruent
Explain why similar figures are not always congruent?
similar figures have the same angles but not necessarily the same side lengths
Can congruent figures be similar and can similar figures be congruent?
Congruent figures are always similar. However, similar figures are only sometimes congruent.
Is congruent figures are always similar?
Are congruent figures always similar? Yes.
Are figures with congruent angles always similar?
yes they are because they have congruent sides
Why similar figures are not always congruent?
because they are not the same
Are Equal angles are always congruent?
the shape? no, not always. but they are always at least similar figures. but the angles alone are always congruent

Explain why similar figures are not always congruent?

Do similar figures always have corresponding angles that are equil?
Yes, similar figures always have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding side lengths.
How are similar and congruent figures the same?
Congruent figures are similar - in sides as well as angles. Corresonding angles of similar figures congruent but their sides are not. The sides are all in some fixed ratio. [If that ratio is 1, the figures are congruent.]
