### Part 1: Why are the two triangles congruent?
To determine why the triangles are congruent, we analyze the markings. In triangle $JKL$, the markings indicate three sides (since there are tick marks on three sides, implying all three sides are equal to the corresponding sides of another triangle). The SSS (Side - Side - Side) postulate states that if three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

- Option A says SSS postulate, which matches our analysis.
- Option B (ASA) requires two angles and the included side, which is not indicated here.
- Option C (AAS) requires two angles and a non - included side, not indicated.
- Option D (SAS) requires two sides and the included angle, not indicated.

So the answer for this part is A. The two triangles are congruent because of the side - side - side (SSS) postulate.

### Part 2: Congruence statement
Assuming the other triangle is, for example, $\triangle KJL$ (but more likely, if we consider the order of vertices, since in $\triangle JKL$, if we match the sides, the congruence statement should be $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle KLJ$ (but this might be a typo, more accurately, if we assume the triangle is labeled such that the corresponding vertices are in order, but since the diagram has $J$, $K$, $L$ with tick marks on $JK$, $KL$, $LJ$ (assuming the tick marks are on all three sides), the congruence statement should be $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle JKL$ (trivial) or if it's another triangle, say $\triangle LKJ$, but the most likely is that the triangle is congruent to itself, but maybe the intended triangle is $\triangle KJL$ no, the correct congruence statement when using SSS is that the order of the vertices should correspond to the congruent sides. So if we have $\triangle JKL$, and the other triangle (let's say $\triangle XYZ$) with $XY\cong JK$, $YZ\cong KL$, $ZX\cong LJ$, then $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle XYZ$. But in the given problem, since it's a self - congruence or maybe a typo, but the most probable congruence statement is $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle KJL$ (no, better to assume that the triangle is congruent to itself in terms of labeling, but the correct way is that if we have three sides congruent, the congruence statement is $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle JKL$ (trivial) or maybe the problem has a typo and the other triangle is $\triangle LKJ$, but the box should be filled with the corresponding triangle. However, if we assume that the triangle is $\triangle KJL$ is wrong, the correct congruence statement is $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle KLJ$ (no, the order of vertices matters. Let's think again: in $\triangle JKL$, the sides are $JK$, $KL$, $LJ$. So the congruence statement should be $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle LKJ$ (matching the sides: $JK\cong LK$, $KL\cong KJ$, $LJ\cong JL$)? No, this is confusing. Alternatively, the congruence statement is $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle JKL$ (since every triangle is congruent to itself). But maybe the intended answer is $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle KJL$ no, the correct way is that when we have SSS, the congruence statement is $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle [the other triangle's vertices in order]$. But since the problem is likely expecting a triangle with vertices in the same order or a permutation. The most probable answer is $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle KJL$ (but this is not correct, the correct congruence statement for a triangle with three equal sides (equilateral triangle) is that it is congruent to itself, so $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle JKL$).

### Part 3: Corresponding parts
When two triangles are congruent (by SSS), their corresponding angles are congruent. In $\triangle JKL$, the corresponding angles: $\angle J\cong\angle J$, $\angle K\cong\angle K$, $\angle L\cong\angle L$ (trivial) or if it's congruent to another triangle, say $\triangle XYZ$, then $\angle J\cong\angle X$, $\angle K\cong\angle Y$, $\angle L\cong\angle Z$. But in the given options:

- Option A: $\angle L\cong\angle C$ - no, there is no $\angle C$ in the original triangle.
- Option B: $\angle L\cong\angle A$ - no, no $\angle A$ in original triangle.
- Option C: $\angle J\cong\angle A$ - no.
- Option D: $\angle K\cong\angle B$ - no.
- Option E: $\angle K\cong\angle C$ - no.
- Option F: $\angle J\cong\angle B$ - no.

Wait, this is a mistake. If the triangle is congruent to itself, then $\angle J\cong\angle J$, $\angle K\cong\angle K$, $\angle L\cong\angle L$. But the options are mislabeled. However, if we assume that there is a typo and the other triangle has angles labeled $A$, $B$, $C$ corresponding to $J$, $K$, $L$, then:

- $\angle J\cong\angle A$ (Option C)
- $\angle K\cong\angle B$ (Option D)
- $\angle L\cong\angle C$ (Option A)

So the correct options are A, C, D.

### Final Answers

#### Part 1:
# Brief Explanations:
Analyse les postulats de congruence. SSS s'applique car trois côtés sont congruents.
# Answer:
A. The two triangles are congruent because of the side - side - side (SSS) postulate.

#### Part 2:
# Brief Explanations:
Pour SSS, l'ordre des sommets correspond aux côtés congruents. Ici, $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle JKL$ (ou un triangle correspondant, mais le plus probable est $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle LKJ$ (erreur possible), mais la réponse attendue est $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle JKL$ (triviale) ou $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle KLJ$).
# Answer:
$\triangle JKL\cong\triangle JKL$ (ou une autre forme avec sommets correspondants, mais la réponse la plus probable est $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle LKJ$ (à corriger), mais la bonne réponse est $\triangle JKL\cong\triangle JKL$).

#### Part 3:
# Brief Explanations:
En SSS, les angles correspondants sont congruents. Si les sommets correspondent à $J - A$, $K - B$, $L - C$, alors $\angle L\cong\angle C$ (A), $\angle J\cong\angle A$ (C), $\angle K\cong\angle B$ (D).
# Answer:
A. $\angle L\cong\angle C$
C. $\angle J\cong\angle A$
D. $\angle K\cong\angle B$
