Prisms are three dimensional figures that always have two congruent faces. The congruent faces are also parallel to one another.
No, two dimensional shapes do not have faces
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.
a cylinder has two faces that are circles
It is a polyhedron with two congruent faces: nothing more, nothing less. That can change if several additional conditions are required of the polyhedron.
A cylinder has two parallel congruent faces and a curved surface.
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.
Congruent means that two shapes are the same size and shape. When two shapes are congruent, all corresponding sides and angles are equal.
Any regular polygon has two congruent faces. Many polygons have two or more congruent faces.
Look at the prism. If all faces are rectangular (or square) then so are the bases. Otherwise they are the two congruent parallel faces that are not rectangular. Look at the prism.

Rectangular prism
congruent shapes are the same shape and size... i think
A polyhedron that has 2 congruent faces is a PRISM. To be a prism, all the other sides (not including the 2 that are congruent) have to be 4-sided.

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.
