How are similar and congruent figures the same?
Congruent figures are similar - in sides as well as angles. Corresonding angles of similar figures congruent but their sides are not. The sides are all in some fixed ratio. [If that ratio is 1, the figures are congruent.]
How do you know angles are congruent?
Angles are congruent if they are equal. Corresponding angles in figures that are similar are congruent.
What is different about similar and congruent figures?
Congruent figures are identical in dimensions and angles whereas similar figures have dimensions in proportion to congruent figures but both have exactly the same angles.
Are all figures with 4 congruent sides a square?
All figures with four congruent sides are rhombuses. All figures with four congruent angles are rectangles. Any shape that is both a rhombus and a rectangle is a square.

Definition of Congruent Figures?
The Definition of Congruent Figures (which is a proof) says that if two figures have corresponding sides congruent and corresponding angles congruent, then the figures are to be congruent.
Are all figures with 4 congruent sides a square?
All figures with four congruent sides are rhombuses. All figures with four congruent angles are rectangles. Any shape that is both a rhombus and a rectangle is a square.
What is different about similar figure and congruent figures?

What does congruent figures have?
Congruent Figures has equal sides, angles, shape and size.
Can figures have congruent angles but not be congruent figures?
The lengths of the sides need not be congruent. For example, consider a square and a rectangle.
Are all similar figures are congruent?
No because Similar figures are the same shape, angles, and types but not lengths. Congruent means EXACTLY the same in everything.
Figures that have the same shape and size and the measure of the angles is the same?
They are said to be congruent.
What figures do not have congruent angles?
Most figures - any that are not equiangular.
Congruent and similar figures have congruent angles True or false?
True.
