Knot theory is dealing with embedding of curves in manifolds of dimension 3. A knot is a single circle embedded in the affine space of dimension 3 as a smooth curve not crossing itself. Many knot invariants are known and can be used to distinguish knots.

How to show whether a given knot and its mirror image are the same or not?
The title says it all:
How can I show that a knot $K$ is distinct from its mirror image?
May be I have to try different knot invariants. Not sure, I am new in this area.
