To determine if triangles ABC and DFE are congruent by the AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) theorem, we need to analyze the given options and understand the congruence criteria.
1. **AAS Theorem** states that if two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the corresponding non-included side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
2. **AAA (Angle-Angle-Angle) Theorem** states that if two triangles have their corresponding angles equal, they are similar, but not necessarily congruent.
3. **ASA (Angle-Side-Angle)** involves two angles and the included side being equal in both triangles.
Let's evaluate each answer choice:
- **A: Yes. THE AAA theorem is used.**
- Incorrect. The AAA theorem indicates similarity, not congruence.
- **B: NO, line over DE does not correspond to line above BC.**
- This suggests a failure in correspondence, which would mean the triangles are not congruent if sides or angles are mismatched.
- **C: Yes, BC = FE.**
- This could imply congruence, but without knowing the angles, we cannot assert triangle congruence solely based on one side being equal.
- **D: No. The ASA Theorem is used.**
- If the corresponding angles and the included side are used, this clarifies that the triangles are congruent by the ASA theorem.
Based on your question about whether ABC equals DFE by AAS theorem, the correct response would be **B** or **D**, highlighting some confusion about the criteria being applied.
If AAS applies and corresponds appropriately, triangles are congruent. If there's any mismatch in labels or the sides and angles do not correspond, opt for B.
Without a visual or further context, it is challenging to definitively conclude between B and D, but it seems the focus on matching parts is key to answering whether they are congruent or not under an appropriate theorem.
