Answer:

The correct option is 2. According to ASA postulate the triangle ABC and triangle EDC are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given  figure it is noticed that the triangle ABC and EDC are right angle triangles. The sides BC and CD are equal. The measure of angle B is 90 and the measure of D is 90.

[tex]\angle B\cong \angle D=90^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]BC\cong DC[/tex]       (Given)

[tex]\angle ACB\cong \angle ECD[/tex]       (Opposite angles are same)

So by ASA postulate the triangle ABC and triangle EDC are congruent.

Therefore correct option 2 is correct.
