To determine whether the triangles are congruent based on the information provided, we need to apply the SSS Congruence Theorem, which states that if all three sides of one triangle are equal to the corresponding three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Without specific details about the lengths of the sides of triangles ABC and LMN, we cannot definitively conclude whether they are congruent or not. However, assuming it's been established that the triangles have three pairs of congruent sides, the correct congruence statement would be:

**Yes, △ABC≅△LMN by the SSS Congruence Theorem.**

If longer names in their notation are consistent and sides are confirmed congruent by given measurements, then this response appropriately concludes their congruence based on established geometric principles. Otherwise, if they do not match in side lengths, then:

**No, the triangles are not congruent.**

The final decision (either answer) depends on the given evidence regarding side lengths.
