Answer:

△JKL is not congruent to △J′K′L′ because there is no sequence of rigid motions that maps △JKL to △J′K′L′.

Explanation:

If L' were (-3,-4), it would be a reflection of L across the x-axis as J' and K' are with respect to J and K. Unfortunately, because it is not, the side lengths J'L' and K'L' of triangle J'K'L' are different from those of triangle JKL. This ensures the triangles JKL and J'K'L' are not congruent.
