For line segments, or angles, it means they have the same measure. For more complicated geometric shapes, for example triangles, quadrilaterals, etc., it means that all corresponding sides and angles have the same measures.
Nope. They can be any shape or size meaning they CAN be congruent.
If the hypothenuse and leg of one triangle are congruent to the hypothenuse and leg of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
A rectangle has two pairs of congruent (meaning identical) sides.If, however, you drew two lines diagonally from corner to corner, you would have two pairs of congruent triangles within the rectangle.
an equiangular triangle meaning all the angles are equal or congruent measures
Non-congruent or incongruent is the opposite of congruent.

Congruent Segment If They Have the same or equal Measures.. posted by: ritzjohn_41@yahoo.com
yea an isosceles has perfect angles 45-45-90, thus meaning congruent.
If the hypothenuse and leg of one triangle are congruent to the hypothenuse and leg of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
2 circles that intersect each other
The prefix of the word "congruent" is "con-." In linguistics, a prefix is an affix which is placed before a base word to modify its meaning. In this case, the prefix "con-" means "together" or "with."
More or less, yes. It has a specific geometric meaning, but you can consider it (informally) as meaning "equal".
They are said to be congruent
The opposite of congruent is incongruent, meaning not the same size or shape.
Triangles are congruent if they have the same size and shape, meaning their corresponding sides and angles are equal.
