Would my answer be correct?

Two triangles are shown on the coordinate plane.


triangle ABC with A at 1 comma 2, B at 1 comma 4, C at 3 comma 3, angle A measuring 63 degrees, and side AC measuring 2.2 units, triangle EDF with E at 3 comma 2, D at 5 comma 1, F at 5 comma 3, angle F measuring 63 degrees, and side EF measuring 2.2 units


Name the congruent triangles and justify the reason for congruence.

1. ΔABC ≅ ΔFDE by SAS 

2.ΔABC ≅ ΔFDE by HL 

3.ΔABC ≅ ΔFED by SSS 

4.ΔABC ≅ to ΔFED by ASA


I think option A but I am not sure

Since you are given AC=EF=2.2 and angle BAC=angle EFD=63, you have one side and one angle, if you could show that AB=DF then that would be the side you could use to confirm SAS. Did you try any of the other options like seeing if all the sides were equal?
