Complete question is;

Which properties are necessary to claim that the two prisms are congruent? Check all that apply.

1) The lengths of corresponding edges are in a 1:1 ratio.

2) The volumes are equal.

3) Corresponding angles have different measures.

4) Corresponding faces are not congruent.

5) The base areas are equal.

6) The prisms have the same height

Answer:

1) The lengths of corresponding edges are in a 1:1 ratio

2) The volumes are equal.

5) The base areas are equal.

6) The prisms have the same height

Explanation:

For two prisms to be congruent, it means they are similar with the following properties;

Each pair of their corresponding angles must be the same.

Each pair of their corresponding lengths must have same ratio.

The ratio of their corresponding lengths will have to be 1:1

Also, they must have same volume and same height.

Thus, looking at the options, the correct ones are 1,2,5,6
