Answer:

A

Explanation:

Attached is a copy of the figure with some of the clutter removed. The congruent angles marked with a single arc, and the parallel lines are given.

The angles marked with a double arc are congruent because they are alternate interior angles where transversal XZ crosses parallel lines XW and YZ. Of course, side XZ is congruent to itself.

Hence we have two angles and a side not between them that are congruent. We can declare ∆XWZ ≅ ∆ZYX by the AAS postulate. (choice A)
