Solution

The correct option is D Symmetrical
Two triangles are congruent but they may not be equilateral or isosceles. (Hence option C and D are wrong)

For two objects to be symmetrical, they must be the same size and shape, with one object having a different orientation from the first.

Identical shapes are the shapes that have exact same shape, size, and position.

Congruent triangles are symmetrical but they may not be identical (as orientation can be different)

Hence option A is correct.
