how can you explain how two objects can be alike but not congruent?
Two objects can be alike (similar) if they have the same shape but different sizes. Congruent objects have the same shape and size. So, if two objects have the same shape but unequal sizes, they are alike but not congruent. For example, two circles with different radii are alike (both are circles) but not congruent.
