Why is it that if a shape is congruent its similar?
Congruency means that the given 2 figures are exactly same in shape and size. Thus all corresponding angles will also be the same.Similarity of shapes means that the 2 given shapes are same in shape but the measures of corresponding sides may not be the same. Since the shapes are the same, the corresponding angles are also same.If 2 shapes are congruent, they have equal corresponding angles. The equal angles satisfy the condition for the shapes being similar. Hence congruent shapes are similar as well.
What shapes have 4 equal angles?
square
Do irregular shapes have equal angles?
They can have some (or all) equal angles. A rectangle, for example, has all four angles equal but, because its sides are not the same measure, it is not a regular shape.
What quadrilateral has all sides equal but does not have all angles equal?
It is a rhombus which has 2 equal acute angles and 2 equal obtuse angles
What shape has 4 equal sides 2 acute angles and 2 obtuse angles?
The shape that has 4 equal sides, 2 acute angles, and 2 obtuse angles is a kite. In a kite, the two pairs of adjacent sides are equal in length, creating the four equal sides. The acute angles are formed between the unequal sides, while the obtuse angles are formed between the equal sides.
