If they are congruent, they are always similar.

But if they are similar, they are only sometimes congruent.

Congruent means same shape and same size.
Similar means same shape, but not necessarily the same size.

If they are congruent then they are similar... in fact, they are identical

If they are similar then they are not congruent... they are only proportional in size

Yes, Always.
Peculiar question.
If two angles have the same measure, do they have the same measure? Of course they do. Always.
