In similar triangles corresponding What is are congruent and corresponding?
For segments or angles, "congruent" means that they have the same measure.For more complicated figures, such as triangles, "congruent" means that all corresponding sides and angles are congruent. "Corresponding" means that you make an assignment, from angles and sides of one triangle, to angles and sides of the other triangle. For example, you might label the sides of one triangle a1, b1, c1, and the sides of other triangle a2, b2, c2 - and you consider the "a" sides to be "corresponding".
What is a parallelogram with 2 congruent sides and two congruent angles?
A parallelogram cannot have only two congruent sides, nor only two congruent angles.
If two angles of a triangle are congruent then are the sides opposite those angles congruent?
Yes.
What shape has 4 sides. all sides are congurent. opposite sides are parallel. opposite sides are congruent. no angles are right sides.?
A rhombus (4 congruent sides, diagonals perpendicular)that is not also a square (no right angles), andis also a parallelogram (opposite sides parallel and congruent, opposite angles congruent). It is also a quadrilateral, which has 4 sides.
What shape has 4 sides Opposite sides are congruent Opposite sides are parallel Opposite angles are congruent?
rectangle
How can a similar figure not be congruent?
if the angles of a figure are the same but the sides aren't, it is similiar. Congruent is angles and sides exactly the same
What is the difference between a similar figure and a congruent figure?
A similar figure has the same interior angles as a congruent figure but its sides are in proportion to a congruent figure.
A figure that has congruent corresponding angles and proportional sides are called?
Similar.
How many angles can a similar and congruent figure have?
That depends on the how many sides the figure or polygon has but they both will have the number of equal angles
Do similar polygons have congruent sides and congruent angles?
No. The word congruent is not applied to sides or angles.
True or false Similar polygons have congruent sides and congruent angles?
False. The angles will be congruent, but the sides not so.
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.]
Similar polygons have congruent sides and congruent angles?
false
What can you say about the measures of the angles opposite the congruent sides?
If only two sides of one figure are congruent to two sides of another figure, you can say nothing about the opposite angles.
Can you assume that corresponding sides and corresponding angles of any two similar triangles are congruent and why?
you can assume that the angles are congruent, but not the sides.
Can two shapes be congruent and not similar?
In short, no. Similar shapes are shapes in which all corresponding angles congruent regardless of the length of the sides. Congruent shapes have congruent corresponding angles and corresponding sides. In effect congruent shapes is a special condition of similar shapes.
Does a congruent figure have congruent sides?
Two figures are only congruent if their corresponding angles and sides are equal.So yes, by the definition of congruency.cylinder
