No. They are proportional, meaning that if side A of one hexagon is, for example, twice the corresponding side A' of the other hexagon, then side B will also be twice the size of side B', etc.

Yes, similar figures always have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding side lengths.
Yes, similar figures always have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding side lengths.
no, according to basic geometry(6th grade, even), the sides are NOT always congruent.
Sometimes. Remember, in order for two polygons to be similar, their angles must be congruent, and their corresponding sides must be proportional. In a rhombus, it is always possible for the angles to differ.
A dilation (or scaling) is a transformation that does not always result in an image that is congruent to the original figure. While translations, rotations, and reflections always produce congruent figures, dilations change the size of the figure, which means the image may be similar to, but not congruent with, the original figure.
