ABC is congruent to XYZ using ASA since angle A is congruent with angle X, angle B is congruent with angle Y, and side AB is congruent with side XY

Answer:
\triangle{XYZ}

Explanation:

The ASA postulate of congruence says that two triangles are said to be congruent if two corresponding angles and the side in between are congruent.

When we look at
\triangle{ABC}, it can be seen that segment AB is the included side in between ∠A and ∠B.

The only triangle that has a segment with measure 5 lies between two corresponding congruent angles is
\triangle{XYZ}.

Hence, by ASA postulate


\triangle{XYZ}\cong\triangle{ABC}
