Question
are figures c and d congruent? are they similar? complete each statement. the figures? congruent. the figures? similar.
Step1: Recall congruence definition
Two figures are congruent if they have the same shape and size. Figure D is smaller than figure C, so they are not the same size.
Step2: Recall similarity definition
Two figures are similar if their corresponding angles are equal and the ratios of their corresponding side - lengths are equal. Figure D appears to be a scaled - down version of figure C, so the ratios of their corresponding side - lengths are equal and corresponding angles are equal.
