Solution

The correct option is B False
The minimum requirement for two triangles to be congruent is that if two sides and their included angle of one triangle are respectively equal to two corresponding sides and their included angle of the other triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
Hence, the above statement is false as the included angles are not equal in the two triangles.
