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.


Are corresponding angles of similar figure always congruent?

Yes, they are.


Is a figure with a scale factor of 1 congruent or similar?

Congruent.


What is a similar figure with the same proportion?

A congruent figure.


Which of the transformations will produce a similar but not congruent figure?

A dilation would produce a similar figure.


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 transformation will produce a figure that is similar but not congruent?

A transformation that produces a figure that is similar but not congruent is a dilation. Dilation involves resizing a figure by a scale factor, which increases or decreases the size while maintaining the same shape and proportional relationships of the sides and angles. As a result, the new figure will have the same shape as the original but will differ in size, making them similar but not congruent.


How do you compare and contrast congruent and similar?

Similar means they are of the same shape but not necessary the same size. two figure are congruents when they are of the same shape and size. congruent figures can be similar but not similar figures aren't always congruent


What transformation produces a figure that is similar but not congruent?

A transformation that produces a figure that is similar but not congruent is a dilation. In a dilation, a figure is resized proportionally from a center point, resulting in a shape that maintains the same angles but alters side lengths. This means that while the two figures have the same shape, they differ in size, making them similar but not congruent.


What is different about similar figure 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.


A figure that has congruent corresponding angles and proportional sides are called?

Similar.


Is a figure similar if the sides and angles are congruent?

Yes .But it depends what shape
