Line segment ab is congruent to line segment cd.
a. ab overbar similar to cd overbar
b. ab overbar congruent to cd overbar
c. ab overbar equal to cd overbar
d. ab overbar element to cd overbar

When two line segments are congruent, what it really means is that the length of the line segments are equal. Congruent is usually interchanged with the word equal since it means the same: equal lengths. However, congruent is very specific in the sense that it means “equal lengths”. When we say equal alone, it may refer to different properties, congruent however is very specific.

Now the answer to this question should be:

B. AB overbar congruent to CD overbar

Not similar, not equal, and definitely not element. What we mean in this case is “equal lengths”, therefore the perfect word is congruent.
