Advertisements
Solution
Two squares are congruent, if they have same side.
Explanation:
In geometry, congruent figures have the same shape and size.
-
A square has all four sides equal and all angles 90°.
-
So, to be congruent, two squares must have equal side lengths.
-
If the side length is the same, their area, perimeter, and angles will also be the same, making them congruent, even if they are rotated or positioned differently.
Example:
A square with side 5 cm and another square with side 5 cm are congruent squares.
