Answer:

The correct answer is:

C) if by applying rigid motions you can make them coincide

Explanation:

Two polygons are said to be congruent or identical in form, if they have exactly the same size and shape or if their corresponding angles and sides are also equal.

When a rigid motion like - reflection, rotation and translation is applied on the polygons and they maintain the same length and shape then, they are called congruent.
