Problem 3

For each pair of shapes, decide whether or not the two shapes are congruent. Explain your reasoning.

  1.  
    Two oval figures. The oval on the left has the long length vertical and the right side oval has the long length horizontal. The two figures appear identical.
  2.  
    Two figures A B C D E F G and H N M L K J I. Figure H N M L K J I appears to be an image of A B C D E F G after a reflection over a vertical line and a translation.
