Question

1. figures j and k are shown.

a. is figure j congruent to figure k? explain.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of congruent figures

Congruent figures have the same shape and size. This means that all corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Step2: Analyze the figures

By visual inspection (or using the grid to measure side - lengths if needed), we can see that figure \(J\) and figure \(K\) have the same shape and size. They are just in different positions on the coordinate plane (a translation or rotation could map one onto the other).

Answer:

Yes, figure \(J\) is congruent to figure \(K\) because they have the same shape and size.
