1)
\overline{EJ} \parallel \overline{KF}, \overline{JG} \parallel \overline{KH}, \overline{EF} \cong \overline{GH} (given)

2)
\overline{FG} \cong \overline{FG} (reflexive property)

3)
\overline{EG} \cong \overline{FH} (segment addition postulate)

4)
\angle JEF \cong \angle KFG, \angle JGE \cong \angle KHF (if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the corresponding angles are congruent)

5)
\triangle EJG \cong \triangle F\text{ }KH (SAS)
