Congruent angles exactly the same size and shape. They have the same measurements. For example, two angles are congruent if they both measure 85 degrees, or if they both measure 621 degrees. As long as they have the exact same measurement, angles are congruent. But they do not have to be the same length and width.
The definition of congruent is:
con·gru·ent /kənˈgro͞oənt/Adjective:
- In agreement or harmony.
- (of figures) Identical in form; coinciding exactly when superimposed.
As noted with the mathematical example above, they are identical angles. If you put two congruent triangles over one another, they will look the same.
In a cube, all sides if sliced off from each other until they are each 2D squares, will all be congruent.

How do you know angles are congruent?
Angles are congruent if they are equal. Corresponding angles in figures that are similar are congruent.
Are all angles in a trapezoid congruent?
No, not all angles in a trapezoid are congruent. A trapezoid may have two pairs of congruent angles, or may have no congruent angles.
Does a scalene triangle have congruent angles?
No, An equilateral triangle has 3 congruent angles, an isosceles triangle has 2 congruent angles, a scalene triangle has no congruent angles.
Are congruent angles angles that have measure?
Yes, congruent angles are angles that have the same measure.
Angles that have the same measure?
Are Congruent.
