In Geometry, two figures are said to be simi-
lar if their shape is the same. Note that this shape
could be rotated or even flipped and it would still
be fine. They would be said to be congruent if
the shape as well as the size is the same. So con-
gruence is a more stringent condition-any pair
of congruent figures is similar by definition.

Two figures can be said to be similar if all
their angles (in order) are the same and all their
corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
