Final answer:

The given statements do not provide enough information to conclude if the two triangles are congruent or not.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if the two triangles are congruent, we need to consider the given statements. The first statement states that the triangles can be obtained by reflecting one across the x-axis. However, this is not enough information to conclude that the triangles are congruent. Congruent triangles must have the same side lengths and angles.

To determine if two triangles are congruent, we can use different congruence criteria such as Side-Angle-Side (SAS), Angle-Side-Angle (ASA), and Side-Side-Side (SSS).

In this case, we don't have any information about the lengths of the sides or the measures of the angles, so we cannot conclude if the triangles are congruent or not. Therefore, none of the given statements are true about the two triangles.
