no... because a triangle has 3 sides and a square has 4 sides
No, a triangle and a square cannot be congruent because congruence requires that two shapes have the same size and shape. A triangle has three sides and three angles, while a square has four equal sides and four right angles. Therefore, their fundamental properties are different, making it impossible for them to be congruent.
No.
Could a traingle and a rectangle ever be congruent? Explain.
Never.
congruent means that all the sides are the same length. the sides of a square have to be the same length or else it would be a rectangle. Not all triangles are congruent though. there are other types of triangles unlike the square, where there is only one type.
no they cant be congruent - Emily grade 7
yes they are congruent because a triangle is half of a square

NO!!! The word' congruent' means 'exactly the same' , both in size, area and shape. Since a triangle has 3 sides, and a square has four sides, they are NEITHER the same size NOR shape. They are NOT congruent, but INCONGRUENT. Do NOT confuse with 'similar'. 'Similar' means same shape, same angles, BUT different area. Both terms have specific mathematical meanings, so be careful.
