Respuesta :

Your answer would be (B) Side Angle Side or (SAS)

Answer:

The correct option is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: DC║AB, DC=AB.

If a transversal line intersect two parallel lines, then the alternative interior angles are equal.

In triangle ABC and CDA,

[tex]AB=DC[/tex]                          (Given)

[tex]\angle 2=\angle 3[/tex]                       (Alternative interior angles)

[tex]CA=CA[/tex]                             (Common side)

Two corresponding sides and their including angle are equal.

By SAS postulate of congruent triangles,

[tex]\triangle ABC\cong \triangle CDA[/tex]

Since both triangles are congruent by SAS postulate, therefore the correct option is 2.
