Identify given geometric markings

Using the Triangle Congruence Postulates knowledge point

• The figure shows two triangles sharing a vertex where their lines intersect.
• Each triangle has one right-angle marker (\(90^\circ\)).
• No side lengths or additional angle markings are given.

Analyze vertical angles

Using the Vertical Angles Theorem knowledge point

• The intersecting lines form a pair of vertical angles at the shared vertex.
• These vertical angles are congruent:

\[
\angle \text{Vertical}_1 \cong \angle \text{Vertical}_2
\]

Evaluate congruence criteria

Using the Triangle Congruence Postulates knowledge point

• We have two pairs of congruent angles: the right angles and the vertical angles.
• No information is provided about any corresponding side lengths.
• To prove triangle congruence (via ASA, AAS, SAS, SSS, or HL), at least one side length relationship must be known.
• Therefore, there is not enough information.
