The shape that would go in the section where two circles overlap is known as a lens shape or a vesica piscis. This area represents the intersection of the two circles, where both circles share common points. The overlapping region can also be described as a curved shape that has two rounded edges, defined by the arcs of the intersecting circles.

Hexagon. Although circles would represent a more accurate omnidirectional coverage, when we want to group circles together, they overlap one another. Hexagon doesn't and still has a somewhat 'circular' shape.
No. Congruent means the same shape and the same size. Two perfect circles would be the same shape but they might not be the same size.
perhaps you mean ven diagram? that's a diagram made of circles which overlap. for example, in an area you could take a survey of the number of black, white, and mixed race people. one circle would denote white people, one would denote black people, and the area in the middle, where the circles overlap, would denote people of mixed race. possibly not the best examples, but it's the best i can do
A rectangle to represent people who were allies of Pompeii or Caesar or both. The rectangle contains one circular shape to represent Pompeii's allies and another circular shape to represent Caesar's allies. Situation I is represented by the two circles not touching one another. Situation II is represented by the non-null overlap between the two circles.
A type of irregular shape, including scalene triangles, and many other shapes. Circles would work too.
