Can two shapes be congruent and not similar?
In short, no. Similar shapes are shapes in which all corresponding angles congruent regardless of the length of the sides. Congruent shapes have congruent corresponding angles and corresponding sides. In effect congruent shapes is a special condition of similar shapes.
What does it mean when two shapes are similar?
It is congruent
What does congruent mean if shapes are not the same size?
You can have two shapes - a small one and a big one - whose angles are congruent but the sides are not. In that case the shapes are not congruent but similar.
How can you tell both shapes are similar?
to prove two triangles are similar, get 2 angles congruent
What do you call two figures the have identical sides and shapes?
You would call them congruent or similar.

Can two shapes that are similar be congruent?
no

What is does congruent means?
Congruent means that two shapes are the same size and shape. When two shapes are congruent, all corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Are two similar polygons always congruent?
Yes, because congruent is mainly saying same shapes if they said congruent shapes.

yes they are it just has to be same size and shape
What is two congruent shapes?
congruent shapes are the same shape and size... i think
Is it always true that two prisms with congruent bases are similar?
No, it is not always true that two prisms with congruent bases are similar. For two prisms to be similar, their corresponding dimensions must be in proportion, not just their bases. While congruent bases indicate that the shapes of the bases are the same, the heights or scaling of the prisms can differ, affecting their similarity. Thus, two prisms can have congruent bases but still not be similar if their heights or other dimensions differ.
Are congruent figures always similar figures?
Yes, congruence is a stronger condition than similarity.
