1. congruence

   Congruence is a term used in various domains to denote similarity or equivalence. In mathematics, two numbers are congruent if they have the same remainder when divided by a common divisor. Meanwhile, in geometry, two shapes are congruent if they have the same size and shape, irrespective of their position or orientation. In psychology, congruence refers to alignment between one's inner feelings and outer display. Therefore, the general definition of congruence would be the state of matching, agreeing or being equivalent in characteristics, nature or structure.

1. Congruence

   In geometry, two figures or objects are congruent if they have the same shape and size, or if one has the same shape and size as the mirror image of the other. More formally, two sets of points are called congruent if, and only if, one can be transformed into the other by an isometry, i.e., a combination of translations, rotations and reflections. This means that either object can be repositioned and reflected so as to coincide precisely with the other object. Two line segments are congruent if and only if they have the same length. The related concept of similarity applies if the objects differ in size but not in shape.
