The postulate that applies for the triangles EFG and HJK is option (A) congruent SSS is the correct answer.
What is similar triangle?
Two triangles are similar if they have the same ratio of corresponding sides and equal pair of corresponding angles. Similar triangles are the triangles that are the same in shape, but may not be equal in size.
For the given situation,
The diagram shows the triangle, EFG and HJK.
The sides EF ≅ HJ
EG ≅ HJ
FG ≅ JK are congruent.
In two triangles, when the corresponding sides are congruent to each other, then the two triangles are similar under congruent SSS theorem.
Hence we can conclude that the postulate that applies for the triangles EFG and HJK is option (A) congruent SSS is the correct answer.
