Answer:

A. SSS

Explanation:

∆ABC has shown above has two given sides indicated, AB and AC, which are congruent to the corresponding two sides l, DC and DB, of ∆DCB.

Also, their third side is also congruent since they share a common side, side BC.

This means that the three sides of ∆ABC is congruent to the three corresponding sides of ∆DCB.

Therefore, ∆ABC is congruent to ∆DCB by the Side-Side-Side Congruence Theorem, which holds that of the three sides of one triangle is congruent to the three corresponding sides of another, then both ∆s are congruent.
