The three requirements to be similar figures are:
- Corresponding angles must be congruent (equal in measure).
- Corresponding sides are in proportion; this means that the ratio of corresponding side lengths is the same for all sides.
- The figures have the same shape, but can be of different sizes.

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.]
What is different about similar and congruent figures?
Congruent figures are identical in dimensions and angles whereas similar figures have dimensions in proportion to congruent figures but both have exactly the same angles.
