Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze the two pentagons (5 - sided figures) shown. Visually, they appear to have the same shape (both are pentagons) and also seem to have the same size (proportions look identical). So we check the options:

• "They have the same size but not the same shape" is wrong as they are both pentagons (same shape).
• "They have the same shape only" is wrong as they also look the same size.
• "They are different shapes and different sizes" is wrong as both are pentagons (same shape) and look same size.
• "They have the same size and shape" matches the visual analysis of the two pentagons.

Answer:

They have the same size and shape.
