Congruent shapes have equal angles and equal sides depending on the naming convention. If for example the two triangles ABC and DEF are congruent then angles: A=D, B=E and C=F.

Yes, Michelle! Congruent shapes are shapes that are exactly the same size and shape. This means:
Their corresponding sides are the same length.
Their corresponding angles are the same measure.
They can be rotated, flipped, or moved (translated) to match each other perfectly.

Yes. They have the same sizes (angles,area,perimeter,segments,etc) . They are not equal because they are in 2 different positions and they are 2 different entities.

geometrical shapes with the same number of sides are said to be congruent if the lengths of corresponding sides are equal and tje measures of the corresponding angles are equal in size congruent triangles have special cases for congruncy such as
two triangles are said to be congruent if 1- the length of all sides are equal in both triangles
2- the length of corresponding sides are equal and the measure of the included angle are equal in both triangles
3- the measures of two angles are equal and the length of the sides joining them are equal in both triangles

Congruent shapes are shapes that are identical
hence have the same size of sides and same size of angles. You can practically say that the two shapes have the same size

What do you mean by "the same size"? The word "congruent" has a specific meaning. It means that the shapes are the same even if they look different, because they may not be drawn accurately or because they are being looked at from different angles. They key thing to understand is that if two shapes are congruent, it means they have the SAME LENGTHS and SAME angles. In a Maths question you may be given drawings of two triangles in different positions and not dawn accurately, but if they give you enough information, such as the lengths of two sides and an angle then you may be able to work out the other angles and sides and prove that they are CONGRUENT, ie, the sides and angles are the same. More difficult questions may require you to know formulas and equations, such as Pythagoras or Trigonometric equations.

Shapes that are congruent are identical in both size and shape, with corresponding sides and angles being equal. They could be rotated, reflected, or translated and still be congruent. Common ways of verifying the congruence include SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, or RHS for triangles.

Same shapes and size but different orientation. So transformations which produce congruent shapes are: rotation, reflection and translation only. Enlargement can produce congruent shape only with scale factor +-1.

Okay Michelle, let's understand the big word there, congruent. It means same but when we want to look at the aspect in Maths, it means same size, shape and dimensions.
Even if these shapes are turned upside down, 45 degrees left or 25 degrees right, anyhow.
As long as they have same size, shape and proportion, they are congruent to each other.

congruent shapes are exactly the same form, in practically every aspect (same size - length, width and height, same angles) they are like perfect copies of each other, even if they may be in a different orientation (aka different position in space) they are identical in form.

The triangles with SAS, SSS, ASA and RHS are congruent.
S = side, A = angle, R = right angle, H = Hypotenuse, S = side
If the side, angle and side are the same, the triangles are congruent.

Hi Michelle, congruent shapes mean they are geometric figures that are identical not only in size, but also in shape. When two shapes are congruent, they share same dimensions and angles, and one can be transformed into another by some isometric transformations, such as translation, rotation or reflection.

Congruent shapes are identical in size and shape, meaning they can be superimposed on each other perfectly without any gaps or distortion. For two shapes to be congruent, all corresponding sides must be equal in length, and all corresponding angles must be equal in size. This concept is commonly used in geometry, particularly with triangles, where congruence can be determined using criteria like SSS (Side-Side-Side), SAS (Side-Angle-Side), ASA (Angle-Side-Angle), or RHS (Right Angle-Hypotenuse-Side) for right-angled triangles.

Yes, Michelle! Congruent shapes are shapes that are identical in both size and shape, but they might be positioned differently. This means that two shapes are congruent if one can be transformed into the other by moving it around (translating), rotating it, or flipping it, without changing its size or angles. For example, two triangles with the same side lengths and angles are congruent, even if one is rotated or flipped compared to the other. So, when people talk about congruent shapes, they mean that, even if the shapes look different at first glance, they are exactly the same in terms of their geometry.

Congruent shapes are shapes that are identical in size and shape. They have the same area, angles, lengths, and sizes.
To determine if two shapes are congruent, you can:
Check the measurements: Compare the lengths of the sides and the sizes of the angles.
Place one shape on top of the other: If the shapes match up exactly, with no overlaps, they are congruent.
Rotate, reflect, or translate one shape: If one shape can be manipulated to fit exactly onto the other, then the shapes are congruent.
The congruence symbol is an equal sign with a squiggly line on top.
Congruence is used in the real world to make jobs quicker because the same measurements can be used and items can be bought in bulk

Congruent shapes are shapes that are identical in both shape and size. This means that if you place one shape on top of the other, they will match exactly. Congruent shapes can be transformed into each other through rotations, reflections, and translations (turns, flips, and slides) without altering their size or shape.

They are basically the same and would fit on top of eachother. Lets do it for a triangle
There are 4 options.
1. The 3 sides are the same
2. 2 sides and one angle (that touches both angles) is the same
3. 2 sides and the angle (which is opposite from the longest side) are the same
4. 2 angles at one side are the same
