From the figure, we observe that,

Non-rigid motions are used to map figure 1 onto figure 2.

Here, resizing (stretching horizontally, vertically, or both ways) is a non-rigid transformation.

So, the answer is,

The figures are congruent because non-rigid motions are used to map figure 1 onto figure 2.

The point corresponding to point C is H.
