Answer:

SSS - The two triangles share all 3 sides, proving they are congruent.

Explanation:

Two sides of each triangle are marked in the diagram as equal. The third side,
\overline{BD} is shared between both sides, meaning that both triangles share all three sides. This is known as SSS (side-side-side) and is a proof of congruence.
