To prove triangles CDE and CDQ congruent by ASA (Angle-Side-Angle), you need one of the following pieces of additional information:

  1. Angle DCE ≅ Angle DCQ: This would provide the second pair of congruent angles needed for the ASA criterion.
  2. Side CE ≅ Side CQ: This would give the necessary congruent side in addition to the two pairs of congruent angles.

Any of these options would satisfy the requirements for proving the triangles congruent by the ASA postulate.
