उत्तर

This statement is false.

Explanation:

Similar figures have the same shape but not necessarily the same size; congruent figures have the same shape and the same size. So two similar figures need not be congruent they are congruent only when the similarity ratio = 1. 

Example: A square of side 2 and a square of side 3 are similar but not congruent.
