PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Is there enough information to prove that the triangles are congruent?

If yes, provide the correct Triangle Congruence Postulate or Theorem and a congruence statement.

If no, justify your answer.

Answer:

I believe that there would not be enough information because according to the SAS theorem (side, angle, side) you would need angle measure along with segment lengths to prove congruence, and the stated information does not contain an angle measure.

Answer:

Yes because of the Side-Angle Side postulate

Explanation:

It is given that line BC is congruent to line BC

It is given that line AC is congruent to line EC

We now that angle DCE is congruent to angle ACB because they are vertical angles

I'm sorry if this is not the right explanation, but I do believe my answer is correct
