Answer:

The triangles are congruent by SSS.

Explanation:

It is marked in the diagram that sides AD and BC have equal length, and sides AB and CD have equal length. Side AC is common to both the triangles. Since
\overline{AB} \cong \overline{CD},
\overline{BC} \cong \overline{AD}, and
\overline{AC} \cong \overline{AC}, it follows from SSS (side-side-side) congruence that
\triangle ABC \cong \triangle CDA.

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

These are congruent because according to the angle sum theorem if at least two of the angles are the same then they would be considered congruent.
