For each pair of shapes decide whether they are congruent similar or neither choose the best answer
To determine if a pair of shapes are congruent, similar, or neither, you need to compare their corresponding sides and angles.
Congruent shapes are identical in shape and size. This means that all corresponding angles and sides of the shapes are equal. If you can match up all the corresponding sides and angles and they are equal, then the shapes are congruent.
Similar shapes have the same shape but may differ in size. This means that corresponding angles are equal, but corresponding sides are proportional. If you can match up corresponding angles and find that they are equal, while the corresponding sides are in proportion to each other, then the shapes are similar.
If you cannot find any correspondence between the sides and angles of the two shapes, or if only some of the corresponding sides and angles are equal, then the shapes are neither congruent nor similar.
When comparing two shapes, it's helpful to draw diagrams or use tracing paper to overlay one shape onto the other. By visually examining the shapes and identifying corresponding angles and sides, you can determine if they are congruent, similar, or neither.
