Answer: Tom is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation: Congruent is defined as having exactly the same angle measurements and exactly the same side lengths.

In the 1/3 dilation, the angles will remain the same, but all the sides will be shorter, 1/3 the lengths of the original image. The image and pre-image are not congruent. They are similar.
