Similar triangles are two triangles with three identical angles but not necessarily identical lengths but if they aren't identical they must have an identical scale factor for each side. Congruent triangle have identical angles and lengths but mat be rotated. on a similar triangle if one size gets bigger by two times the original all of them must be two times the original.

Is sss a way to find if triangles are similar?
Triangles are congruent if all three sides in one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides in the other.When two triangles have corresponding sides with identical ratios, the triangles are similar.Of course if triangles are congruent, they are also similar.
What are two isosceles triangles with congruent vertex angles?
They're similar triangles.
Why can't you use AAA to prove two triangles congruent?
You can't use AAA to prove two triangles congruent because triangles can have the same measures of all its angles but be bigger or smaller, AAA could probably be used to prove two triangles are similar not congruent.
What is the difference between similar and congruent?
Congruent means two figures have exactly the same shape and size. If the shape is identical, but not the size , two figures are similar.
