Answer:

CFB or DFE

Explanation:

Congruent angles have the same value in degrees.

Knowing that line DB is straight and CE is perpendicular to DB (at 90 degrees to DB), we know CFD is 90 for the sum of CFD and CFB to equal 180 degrees (since they are on a straight line which is 180 degrees). We also know DFE is 90 for the same reason.

Our question is asking what is congruent or the same angle as CFD. In this case, there are 2 congruent angles: CFB and DFE.

CFB is 90 these angles are on the same line DB and are supplementary (add up to 180 degrees)

DFE is also a correct option since this and CFD are on the line CE and are also supplementary
