Explanation:

Given

`\triangle ABC = \triangle DE F`

Required

Which would not prove the similarity

`\triangle ABC = \triangle DE F` implies that:

The following angles are congruent

`\angle A = \angle D`

`\angle B =\angle E`

`\angle C =\angle F`

And the following lengths are congruent

`AB = DE`

`BC =EF`

`CA = FD`

The options are not clear; so, it's a bit difficult to select the correct option.

Any of the options that is different from the above list of 6 congruent pairs is the answer to your question.
