What is the definition of congruent sides?
Congruent Segments (sides) : Segments that are of the same lengths.
What are the properties of a equalateral triangle?
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).
How are regular and irregular shapes the same?
Regular shapes:all sides and angles are the same Irregular shapes: different angle and sides
What is word in math for the same?
The word for the same in math is congruent. For example, if there are two squares, both the exact same size, length, width etc., then the two shapes are congruent.
Same size same shape?
Two shapes that are the same size and same shape are said to be congruent. They can still vary in mass.
If two shapes have the same area and perimeter are they congruent?
Only if they have the same number of sides.
Which figure has all sides congruent?
Figures that have all sides congruent are squares. Congruent shapes have the same size and the same shape. Circles can be congruent if they have the same radius.
What is the ratio between the corresponding sides of two congruent shapes?
Since by definition corresponding sides of congruent shapes have the same length, the answer is 1.
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.
What does congruent and simliar mean?
Congruent means when 2 shapes are exactly the same Similar means the shapes are exactly same but with different sides
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.
How do you decide a figure is congruent?
If all the sides and all the angles are the same and in the same order, the shapes are congruent.
What are similarities of congruent shapes and similar shapes?
The angles for congruent shapes and the angles in similar shapes are all the same. All the sides are also proportional in both. Basically, all congruent shapes are similar but not all similar shapes are congruent.
What are congruent sides?
sides (no, not angles, SIDES, as in LINES,) that are the same length and thickness. Just like congruent shapes, but with lines. hope you find lots of congruent lines! :)
What two angles have the same measure what is it called?
The two angles are congruent. They are congruentangles. Congruent is basically 'same' in math. We often say congruent shapes, congruent, angles, and congruent sides.
When two shapes are similar does that mean they have the same amount of sides?
No, it means they have either 2 sides and 1 angle congruent, 2 angles congruent, 2 angles and a side congruent, or 3 sides congruent.
When are shapes congruent?
Shapes are said to be congruent when they have the same dimensions and same angles
