In the given figure, we have two triangles △EJH and △EIH

We are given the following information


\begin{gathered} \bar{HJ}\perp\bar{JE} \\ \bar{HI}\perp\bar{IE} \\ \bar{HJ}\cong\bar{HI} \end{gathered}

This means that these two triangles are "Right Triangles"

Therefore.

Choice 1 = right angles

When the hypotenuse and a leg of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and a leg of a second right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Therefore,

Choice 2 = side-angle-side triangle congruence

Choice 3 = side-angle-side
