similar polygons
What are similarities of congruent shapes and similar shapes?

What is two congruent shapes?
congruent shapes are the same shape and size... i think
Can two shapes be congruent and not similar?
In short, no. Similar shapes are shapes in which all corresponding angles congruent regardless of the length of the sides. Congruent shapes have congruent corresponding angles and corresponding sides. In effect congruent shapes is a special condition of similar shapes.
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.
Can two shapes that are similar be congruent?
no
What does congruent mean if shapes are not the same size?
You can have two shapes - a small one and a big one - whose angles are congruent but the sides are not. In that case the shapes are not congruent but similar.
Do similar shapes always have to have corresponding sides that are proportional?
Yes, similar figures always have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding side lengths.
What kind of shape features congruent corresponding angles and side lengths that form proportional relationships?
Similar shapes.
What are the two figures that has the same size and shapes called?
congruent shapes :)
Are two similar polygons always congruent?
Yes, because congruent is mainly saying same shapes if they said congruent shapes.
What does it mean when two shapes are similar?
