Congruent Figures

Congruent figures are shapes that are exactly the same size and shape. If you could place one on top of the other, they would match perfectly without any gaps or overlaps. This means all corresponding sides are equal in length, and all corresponding angles are equal in measure. Congruence applies to many shapes, such as triangles, squares, or circles, indicating they are identical in form. The concept helps in understanding geometric properties and relationships, ensuring that when two figures are congruent, they are essentially identical copies, just possibly in different positions or orientations.
