Question
- are the following two figures similar or congruent? congruent similar
Step1: Recall the definitions
Congruent figures have the same shape and size. Similar figures have the same shape but different sizes.
Step2: Check for size
By visual inspection or using distance - formula (if coordinates were used for exact length calculation, but from the figure's appearance), the two triangles have the same shape. Also, since there is no indication of a size change (like scaling factor) that would make them just similar (and not congruent), and they match in size.
