Can two figures be congruent but not similar?
no because if they are conmgruent then they are similar
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 is the symbol that denotes two figures are similar?
= congruent sign
What are not always true if two figures are similar?
That their sides are congruent.
When two plane figures have congruent angles and porportional sides they are?
... similar.
What does it mean for two figures to be congruent?
Similar
Can two figures be congruent but not similar?
no because if they are conmgruent then they are similar
What is the difference between similar and congruent?
Congruent means two figures have exactly the same shape and size. If the shape is identical, but not the size , two figures are similar.

They are congruent if they are identical in shape and size.
1What is the difference between congruent and similar?
Two congruent geometric figures have the same shape and the same size, whereas two similar geometric figures have the same shape but they differ in size.
When two plane figures have congruent angles and porportional sides they are?
... similar.
What is alike and different about similar and congruent figures?
If two figures are similar or congruent, each angle of the first figure is the same as the corresponding angle of the second figure.In similar figures, the ratio of each side in the first figure to the corresponding side in the second figure is a constant. If the figures are congruent, that ratio is 1: that is, the corresponding sides are of the same measure.
Are congruent figures always similar figures?
Yes, congruence is a stronger condition than similarity.
