Based on the given information, the angles that are congruent by the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem are:
angle A congruent to angle C
Therefore, the correct answer is:
angle A congruent to angle C
Given: triangleABD congruent to triangleCDB, modifying above upper A upper B with bar||modifying above Upper C Upper D with barA parallelogram is shown. Its points from bottom left moving clockwise are A, B, C, and D. Two diagonal lines go from point A to C and point B to D. The intersection of the lines in the middle is marked point E.
Prove:triangleABE congruent to triangleCDE

- angle A is congruent to angle C
In the given information, it is mentioned that line AB is parallel to line CD since it is a parallelogram. The intersection point of the diagonals is marked as point E. Therefore, the transversal is the line passing through points A, E, and C.
Now, let's analyze each set of angles mentioned in the question:
1. angle A congruent to angle C:
This set of angles does not meet the condition of the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem because angle A and angle C are not alternate interior angles. They are corresponding angles.
2. angle CDE congruent to angle ABE:
This set of angles meets the condition of the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem because angle CDE and angle ABE are alternate interior angles formed by the transversal line and the parallel lines AB and CD.
3. angle AED congruent to angle CEB:
This set of angles does not meet the condition of the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem because angle AED and angle CEB are not alternate interior angles. They are vertical angles.
4. angle BAC congruent to angle CDB:
This set of angles does not meet the condition of the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem because angle BAC and angle CDB are not alternate interior angles. They are corresponding angles.
Based on the analysis, the set of angles that are congruent by the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem is:
angle CDE congruent to angle ABE.
