Yes, that's part of what the word congruent means. Not only do congruent triangles have the same shape they are of the same size, and you can move one of them over the other one so that it covers it exactly.
Note that you cannot flip a triangle over and consider it conguent to another triangle.

Is it true that congruent triangles have the same shape?
yes it is
Are all similar triangles congruent triangles?
No. For example the triangles with sides {3, 4, 5} and {6, 8, 10} are similar but not congruent.
How would you prove triangles are congruent?
You could prove two triangles are congruent by measuring each side of both triangles, and all three angles of each triangle. If the lengths of the sides are the same, and so are the angles, then the triangles are congruent... if not, then the triangles are not congruent. If the triangles have the exact same size and shape then they are congruent.
If two triangles are congruent what is true about them?
Same size and shape
Are all triangle congruent?
no. congruent means the same size and shape. all triangles don't share the same size and shape.
Congruent triangles have the same shape and size because they will always have the same?
Congruent Triangles have the same angles and side length measures
What do you call triangles that are the same size and shape?
congruent triangles
Triangles are congruent if they have the same what?
Triangles are congruent if they have the same size and shape, meaning their corresponding sides and angles are equal.
Congruent triangles have what the same?
shape and sizecorresponding sides

What do triangles have to have to be congruent?
Same dimensional shape and same size angles.
If two triangles are congruent what is true about them?
Same size and shape
Are all triangle congruent?
no. congruent means the same size and shape. all triangles don't share the same size and shape.
Do similar triangles always have congruent angles?
Yes, in similar triangles, the angles are always congruent, and the sides have the same proportions to each other.
Are 2 triangles congruent if they have the same area?
Not always
