Answer
There is not enough information to determine if the scarves are congruent.
Explanation
This question is about congruent shapes, which are identical in form. In mathematics, two figures or objects are congruent if they have the same shape and size, or if one has the same shape and size as the mirror image of the other. We're supposed to decide if the scarves that Justice and Leah made have the same size and shape, based on the given statements.We’re only told that both Justice and Leah made a triangular scarf, i.e. the scarves have the same shape (a triangle). However, we don’t have any information about the sizes or the dimensions of the triangles such as their side lengths or the measures of their angles. Therefore, solely based on the information we have from question, we are not able to determine if the scarves are congruent or not.
