Corresponding sides and angles are not all congruent.

In an isosceles triangle 2 sides are congruent and 2 angles are congruent. In an equilateral triangle all 3 sides are congruent and all 3 angles are congruent also.
All three sides are congruent (equal in length); all three angles are congruent (same measure).All three sides are congruent (equal in length); all three angles are congruent (same measure).All three sides are congruent (equal in length); all three angles are congruent (same measure).All three sides are congruent (equal in length); all three angles are congruent (same measure).
Similar polygons are polygons for which all corresponding angles are congruent and all corresponding sides are proportional. From this definition we can say they have the same shape.
It means that if two triangles have two sides with the lengths of the corresponding sides that are equal (congruent) and the angles between between the two sides congruent, then the triangles are congruent (i.e., the three corresponding lengths of sides and three corresponding angles are all congruent). For example, if you know that triangle one has sides of length 1 and 2 and the angle between the two sides is 60 degrees and that triangle two has sides of length 1 and 2 and the angle between the two sides is 60 degrees, this theorem says that the triangles are congruent, so the length of third side of both triangles is the same and the measure of the other two angles in triangle one is the ame as the measure of the other two angles in triangle two.
Irregular polygons, curves, open shapes all lack congruence of angles and sides.
