Explanation:

If the orientation of two shapes is not the same, first check which directions they point. Changing the orientation of a shape to map it onto another is only possible through either reflection or rotation. So, choose a suitable transformation—either reflection or rotation—to map one shape onto the other. Translations alone would not show the congruence of shapes with different orientations.
