You misunderstand the meaning of congruence. Two shapes may be congruent to each other if are the same size and shape. However orientation is not important, that is, it doesn't matter if its rotated. The most common high school example is two triangles. They are congruent if all the side lengths on one triangle match to the side lengths on the other triangle.

What is a congruent shape?
Congruent figure(s) (shapes) are two figures that have the same size AND shape.
Figures that are exactly the same size and shape?
are congruent.
What is a shape that is the same size and shape as another shape?
Congruent
How do you know if two figures are congruent or not?
They are congruent if they are identical in shape and size.
What shape has two pairs of opposite sides congruent?
There are infinitely many possible shapes. For example an octagon with sides [sequentially] numbered 1 and 5 that are equal.Another ViewYes the above is true, but specifically a shape with twopairs of congruent, opposite sides is called a parallelogram.
Can a congruent shape have the same number of angles?
a congruent shape HAS TO HAVE ALL CONGRUENT ANGLES OR IT WOULDNT BE A CONGRUENT sHAPE
What does congruent mean?
Congruent can mean corresponding to (or agreeing with); or in mathematics, it can mean identical in shape and size. For example, two circles are congruent if they have the same size, while two line segments are congruent if they have the same length. So it basically means that it has the same shape and size.
What is the similiarity between a congruent and non-congruent figure?
Congruent means that two figures have the same shape. Non-congruent means they don't. There is no "similarity"; two non-congruent figures can be just about anything, for example a square and a circle.
What has no sides congruent?
A scalene triangle has no sides congruent.
What shape has the same shape and same size?

What geometric term means same shape same size?
i think that its a shape kinda like a circle and a square....thats an example a shape that has the same shape and size is CONGRUENT yes it is
What is a congruent shape?
Congruent figure(s) (shapes) are two figures that have the same size AND shape.
What shape has 4 congruent sides with no congruent angels?
That is a mathematical impossibility. At least 2 angles have to be congruent in order for the shape to have 4 sides.
Same size and shape what is it?
