Answer:

AC ≅ AE

Explanation:

According to the SAS Congruence Theorem, for two triangles to be considered equal or congruent, they both must have 2 corresponding sides that are of equal length, and 1 included corresponding angle that is of the same measure in both triangles.

Given that in ∆ABC and ∆ADE, AB ≅ AD, and <BAC ≅ DAE, the additional information we need to prove that ∆ABC ≅ ADE is AC ≅ AE. This will satisfy the SAS Congruence Theorem. As there would be 2 corresponding sides that are congruent, and 1 corresponding angle in both triangles that are congruent to each other.
