Answer: Similar Triangles, same measure, length of corresponding sides are the same

Explanation: Similar Triangles are triangles that have the same shape but different angles. They have two main properties and they are:

1. They have same measure of corresponding angles.

2. They have the same length of corresponding sides.

When triangles that are similar are rotated, they still maintain the same shape and they can have shared parts.

They have all three corresponding angles to be the same and all three corresponding sides are in the same proportion.
