What is the definition of congruence?

• If two figures have the same shape, then they are congruent.

• If two figures have the same area, then they are congruent.

• If there is a sequence of transformations taking one figure to another, then they are congruent.

• If there is a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations that take one figure to the other, then they are congruent.
