Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Recall congruence and similarity definitions

Congruent figures have same shape and size. Similar figures have same shape but may differ in size.

Step2: Analyze first - pair of triangles

The two triangles have different sizes. So they are not congruent. But they have the same shape, so they are similar.

Step3: Analyze second - pair of squares

The two squares have the same shape and size. So they are congruent and also similar.

Step4: Analyze third - pair of cross - like figures

The two cross - like figures have different sizes. So they are not congruent. But they have the same shape, so they are similar.

Step5: Analyze fourth - pair of circle and ellipse

The circle and the ellipse have different shapes. So they are neither congruent nor similar.

Answer:

  • First pair: Congruent? No, Similar? Yes
  • Second pair: Congruent? Yes, Similar? Yes
  • Third pair: Congruent? No, Similar? Yes
  • Fourth pair: Congruent? No, Similar? No
