Final answer:

Segment DE is congruent to segment BC. Hence the correct answer is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question, congruent triangles ABC and DEF are given. Triangle ABC is marked with angle C having one arc, angle B having a right angle mark, and angle A having two arcs. Side AB has one hash mark, side BC has two hash marks, and side AC has three hash marks. We need to identify which side is congruent to segment BC.

Based on the markings, we can conclude that segment DE is congruent to segment BC because both have two hash marks.

Hence the correct answer is option A
