Answer: The triangles are not congruent.

Explanation:

We are given that the two triangles both contain a congruent angle and two congruent sides. The triangles have two congruent sides with a non-included congruent angle among them.

However, because the two triangles only have two congruent sides, and the angle shared by each triangle is not included between the two sides, the triangle would be "congruent" by SSA, which is not a triangle congruency theorem or postulate.

Therefore, the two triangles are not congruent.

I hope this helps!
