Write a correct congruence statement for this pair of triangles?

Practice

**Instructions:**

Write a correct congruence statement for this pair of triangles.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The image shows two triangles, △JHI and △FHI, sharing side \( \overline{HI} \). The two triangles are part of a quadrilateral \( IJFH \). The red markings indicate equality:

- Side \( \overline{IJ} \) is equal to side \( \overline{FH} \).
- Side \( \overline{HJ} \) is equal to side \( \overline{FI} \).
- Angle \( \angle JHI \) is equal to angle \( \angle FIH \).
- Angle \( \angle JIH \) is equal to angle \( \angle HFI \).

Based on these indications, the triangles have angles and sides that are marked congruently, suggesting congruence by ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) or SAS (Side-Angle-Side) criteria.

**Congruence Statement:**

△JHI ≅ △FHI
