Answer:

(C) SAS

Explanation:

The obtuse angles in each triangle are "corresponding" with respect to the segments marked parallel and the horizontal transversal.

Those angles are between pairs of proportional sides:

60/42 = 40/28 = 10/7

so, the applicable theorem is SAS. The triangles can be proven similar using the SAS theorem.
