noncongruent

Differently shaped, sized

Noncongruent describes things that don't match in shape, size, or character.

In geometry, noncongruent figures cannot be superimposed exactly—they differ in dimensions or angles: The two triangles are noncongruent.

More broadly, noncongruent applies to things that fail to align or correspond: His actions were noncongruent with his stated values.
