If two shapes are congruent then is their ratio of similarity one to one?
Yes, if two shapes are congruent, their ratio of similarity is one to one. Congruent shapes are identical in shape and size, meaning all corresponding sides and angles are equal. Therefore, the ratio of their corresponding dimensions is exactly 1:1.
Are congruent shapes special simalar shapes?
Yes. Both have angles which are equal and corresponding sides which are in a fixed ratio. For a congruent shape, that fixed ratio must be 1.
Are similar shapes always congruent?
Yes because to be similar the shapes need to have the same ratio of sides and similar angles. To be congruent the shapes have to be the same shape and size, so 2 congruent shapes will always be similar.
Are congruent figures always similar figures?
Yes, congruence is a stronger condition than similarity.
Are the corresponding sides of similar hexagons alwasy congruent?
No. They're always in the same ratio.

What are the similarities of geometry figures?
Two geometric shapes are similar if they differ only in their size. For polygons this requires that the corresponding angles of the two polygons are congruent and that the ratio of their corresponding sides is the same.
What is the ratio of the lengths of corresponding sides of two congruent polygons?
1:1
Are congruent figures always similar figures?
Yes, congruence is a stronger condition than similarity.
Are the corresponding sides of similar hexagons alwasy congruent?
No. They're always in the same ratio.
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.
How is the ratio of the volumes related to the ratio of corresponding dimensions?
The answer depends on whether or not the shapes are similar. If they are, then the ratio of volumes is the cube of the ratio of the linear dimensions.
What makes two shape similar?
Two polygons are similar if all of the following conditions apply: they have the same number of sides; corresponding sides are always in the same ratio; all angles are congruent. For shapes in general, I suspect the definition of similarity is somewhat more complicated.
What is true about corresponding angles and corresponding sides of similar figures?
The ratio between corresponding sides or angles of similar triangles are equal
How are similar shapes uesful?
Information that you have about one shape can be transferred to the other. For example, the measure of corresponding angles will be the same; the lengths of each pair of corresponding sides will be in the same ratio.
What is the word that means the ratio between two corresponding measurements?
proportion
