Abstract: In this paper we show that if a compact set $Esubsetmathbb{R}^d$, $dgeq3$, has Hausdorff dimension greater than $frac(4k-1)4kd+frac14$ when $3leqd<frack(k+3)(k-1)$ or $d-frac1k-1$ when $frack(k+3)(k-1)leqd$, then the set of congruence class of simplices with vertices in $E$ has nonempty interior. By set of congruence class of simplices with vertices in $E$ we mean ${\displaystyle }$Delta_{k}(E) = left { vec{t} = (t_{ij}) : |x_i-x_j|=t_{ij} ; x_i,x_j in E ; 0leq i < j leq k ight } subset mathbb{R}^{frac{k(k+1)}{2}}${\displaystyle }$ where $2leqk<d$. This result improves our previous work in the sense that we now can obtain a Hausdorff dimension threshold which allow us to guarantee that the set of congruence class of triangles formed by triples of points of $E$ has nonempty interior when $d=3$ as well as extending to all simplices. The present work can be thought of as an extension of the Mattila-Sj"olin theorem which establishes a non-empty interior for the distance set instead of the set of congruence classes of simplices.
