Not possible.
On the given figure, one side of the two triangles is common and the markers indicate one pair of congruent sides in the two triangles.
However, there is nothing else given on the figure that indicates congruence. Two pairs of congruent sides is not enough to imply congruence. Let's review the requirements for each congruent postulate.
≅is used.
When writing a polygon congruence, the corresponding vertices must be listed in the same order. For the polygons above, two of the possible congruence statements can be written as follows. ABCDE ≅ JKLMN or CDEAB ≅ LMNJK
