If two triangles are similar are they congruent?
no: if you have two triangles with the same angle measurements, but one has side lengths of 3in, 4in, and 5in and the other has side lengths of 6in, 8in, and 10in, then they are similar. Congruent triangles have the same angle measures AND side lengths.
You can build two triangles that have the same side lengths but are not congruent.?
No, triangles with the same side lengths are always congruent.
What conditions will ensure that two isosceles triangles are congruent?
The triangles have the same side lengths.
If the corresponding side lengths of two triangles are congruent the corresponding angles are also congruent.?
False. The statement should be: If the corresponding side lengths of two triangles are congruent, and the triangles are similar, then the corresponding angles are also congruent.
Is it possible for two triangles to have the same angles two sides the same but one side different?
If the two triangles only had one angle which was the same, then the third side could be different lengths on each triangle. But if more than one angle is the same, then all three angles will be the same (as on the other triangle), and also the third side will be the same as well.

No, triangles with the same side lengths are always congruent.
What conditions will ensure that two isosceles triangles are congruent?
The triangles have the same side lengths.
What size and shape do two congruent triangles have?
to be congruent two triangles have, ASA-two angles the same with a side length between them. SAS-two side lengths the same and a same angle between them. SSS-all 3 side lengths the same. RHS-if the triangles are right angles ,and the hypotenuse are the same. :)
Two triangles that have the same side lengths will always be congruent?
True
When do you say that two triangles have the same shape?
well, they could be congruent, there are some rules for congruency, to be congruent two triangles have, ASA-two angles the same with a side length between them. SAS-two side lengths the same and a same angle between them. SSS-all 3 side lengths the same. RHS-if the triangles are right angles ,and the hypotenuse are the same. ;or they could be mathmatically similar. :)
Are two triangles that have the same side lengths always be congruent?
Yes because the definition of a congruent triangle is a triangle with EVERY side the same length
Two equilateral triangles with the same side lengths are joined together along a side to form a quadrilateral. What type of quadrilateral is this?
rhombus
What is SAS Congruence Theorem?
The side-angle-side congruence theorem states that if you know that the lengths of two sides of two triangles are congruent and also that the angle between those sides has the same measure in both triangles, then the two triangles are congruent.
Are two equilateral triangles sometimes always or never similar to each other?
Since triangles have three sides and must have interior angles equal to pi or 180o, the three interior angles in all equilateral triangles will be pi/3 or 60o.However, equilateral triangles must also have equal side lengths. Since equilateral triangles with interior angles of 60o will not necessarily have the same side lengths, two equilateral triangles will sometimes be similar to each other.
True or false two triangles that have the same side lengths will always be congruent?
True, only if all the sides are the same length.
If the corresponding side lengths of two triangles are congruent the corresponding angles are also congruent.?
False. The statement should be: If the corresponding side lengths of two triangles are congruent, and the triangles are similar, then the corresponding angles are also congruent.
