Explanation:

I'll do the first problem as an example.

∠P and ∠H both have one mark. That means they're congruent.

∠T and ∠G both have two marks. So they're congruent.

∠W and ∠D both have three marks. So they're congruent.

So we can write a congruence statement:

ΔPTW ≅ ΔHGD

We can write more congruence statements by rearranging the letter, provided that corresponding pairs have the same position (P is in the same place as H, etc.). For example:

ΔWPT ≅ ΔDHG

ΔTWP ≅ ΔGDH
