Are congruent figures always similar figures?
Yes, congruence is a stronger condition than similarity.
What does congruent mean if shapes are not the same size?
You can have two shapes - a small one and a big one - whose angles are congruent but the sides are not. In that case the shapes are not congruent but similar.
Is a nonagon congruent?
One shape cannot be congruent: you need two (or more) shapes which can be congruent to each other.
What does congruent shapes look like?
You can't tell one from another.
What shapes have only one exactly congruent sides?

How do you make a flowchart for congruent or similar triangles?
Here guys Thanks :D Congruent triangles are similar figures with a ratio of similarity of 1, that is 1 1 . One way to prove triangles congruent is to prove they are similar first, and then prove that the ratio of similarity is 1. In these sections of the text the students find short cuts that enable them to prove triangles congruent in fewer steps, by developing five triangle congruence conjectures. They are SSS! , ASA! , AAS! , SAS! , and HL ! , illustrated below.
What is the difference between congruent and similar figures?
Congruent figures have exactly the same shape; you could superimpose one on the other and see only one figure. Similar figures have some points of similarity but do not have to be exactly the same.
Is a nonagon congruent?
One shape cannot be congruent: you need two (or more) shapes which can be congruent to each other.
Is a rectangle congruent?
Congruent is a term used to describe the relation between two shapes, not one
What are congruent shapes?
In geometry, it refers to two shapes that are identical in shape and size. If one shape can be moved - without stretching or cutting - so that it exactly covers another, then the two shapes are said to be congruent.
What is a regular quadrilaterals that are not congruent?
Congruence is a relationship between two shapes. ANY one shape cannot be congruent.
What shapes have 4 congruent side but no right angles?
A rhombus is one of them

How do you construct two congruent shapes?
turn them into a 3D shape,used to make two congruent shapes.Two easy shapes to make a congruent shape is to use circle and rectangle,also triangles.You can compare a congruent shape by adding extra figures to it like a cube if there were no extra figures it wouldve been a square only.Congruent shapes are also one of natures preditors.Dogs have a connection with a congruent shape.A bone.
