What does non congruent mean?

In geometry two figures are congruent if they have the same shape and size if they are non congruent they do not have the same shape and size two triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides are all equal in lengh and their corresponding angles are equal in size


What is the similiarity between a congruent and non-congruent figure?

Congruent means that two figures have the same shape. Non-congruent means they don't. There is no "similarity"; two non-congruent figures can be just about anything, for example a square and a circle.


What is non congruent?

Non-congruent represents something that is not in agreement, If superimposed it does not coincide. If two figures don't have the same shape they are considered non-congruent in Geometry. In order to be considered congruent, a figure must be the mirror image of another, if it is not, the figure is non-congruent.

What is a non geometric shape?

A non geometric shape can be defined as shapes with irregular contours, and whose edges are not straight. On the other hand, geometric shapes are shapes with regular contours and straight edges such as squares, triangles, or circles. ~by Kate Wellsonberg


What is a non polyhedron with 2 parallel bases that are congruent?

It is a prism with non-polygonal bases. The bases simply be two identically shaped "blobby" shapes.


What shape has 2 pairs of congruent sides with those sides being non-adjacent and the angles are not all congruent?

This is a parallelogram. The first requirement is 2 pairs of congruent sides where the congruent sides are not adjacent. This is like a rectangle (excluding a square) that has two pairs of congruent sides where the congruent sides are not adjacent. But the angles are not all congruent (as set in the question) which pushes the shape into the "next less regular" shape, the parallelogram. The angles will not all be congruent, but it will have 2 pairs of congruent angles. There is no way to avoid the 2 pairs of congruent angles because of the requirement that the shape must have 2 pairs of congruent sides (the first requirement).


What is a non congruen?

If you meant congruent it is any shape that is the same size and dimension as the one next to it. Think roof or wall/floor tiles. Do they tesallate? fit into one another?
