The triangles are congruent by AAS postulate ( option 4)

Congruent triangles are triangles with equal angles and equal corresponding side lengths.

The triangles can be stated to be congruent by what is given on them . For example SSS postulate , AAS postulate or SAS postulate.

In the diagram above ;

There are two equal angles marked and a corresponding side marked.

Therefore we can say that the triangles are congruent by AAS postulate i.e Angle Angle Side postulate.
