Question

determine if the two figures below are congruent. use the drop - down menus below to justify why. which point on figure 2 corresponds to point ( g ) on figure 1?
answer attempt 1 out of 2
the two figures are not congruent because are used to map figure 1 onto figure 2.

Explanation:

Step1: Understand Congruence

Congruent figures can be mapped onto each other using rigid motions (translations, rotations, reflections). Rigid motions preserve side - lengths and angles.

Step2: Analyze the Figures

If non - rigid motions (like resizing) are needed to map one figure onto another, the figures are not congruent. Since non - rigid motions are used (as given in the problem), the figures are not congruent.

Answer:

The two figures are not congruent because non - rigid motions are used to map Figure 1 onto Figure 2.
