The correct options are
B
Equal measures

C
Same shape

Two triangles(or any geometric figures) are congruent if they have same shape and equal measures (i.e., all corresponding sides and angles are equal). This is because two triangles are said to be congruent only if they coincide when superimposed which is possible only if all their corresponding angles and sides are equal.
