Write a statement that indicates that the triangles in each pair are congruent.

**Title: Congruent Triangles: Identifying Congruent Pairs**

**Objective:** To identify a statement that indicates the congruence of two triangles in a given geometric figure.

**Instruction:** Below is a geometric diagram consisting of a quadrilateral with various marked sides and angles. Your task is to select the correct pair of congruent triangles from the given options.

### Diagram Explanation:
The given diagram is a quadrilateral \(AFBC\) with a diagonal from point \(A\) to point \(B\). Multiple key features and points are marked for clarity:
- Points: \(A\), \(F\), \(C\), \(B\)
- Equal segments are indicated by tick marks on the sides and angles.

### Problem Statement:
Write a statement that indicates that the triangles in each pair are congruent.

#### Diagram:
```
    A-------------C
     \           /
      \         /
       \       /
        \     /
         \   /
          \ /
           B

     /         \
    /           \
   F-------------B
```
*Note: Each side marked with tick marks indicates that they are equal in length.*

#### Options:
A) \( \triangle BAC \cong \triangle ABF \)

B) \( \triangle BAC \cong \triangle BF4 \)

C) \( \triangle BAC \cong \triangle FBA \)

D) \( \triangle BCA \cong \triangle FAB \)

#### Answer Choices:
- **Option A:** \( \text{Triangle } BAC \cong \text{Triangle } ABF \)
- **Option B:** \( \text{Triangle } BAC \cong \text{Triangle } BF4 \)
- **Option C:** \( \text{Triangle } BAC \cong \text{Triangle } FBA \)
- **Option D:** \( \text{Triangle } BCA \cong \text{Triangle } FAB \)

**Decision Making:**
Carefully analyze the given quadrilateral and the marked sides and angles. Select the correct option that demonstrates the congruence of triangles.

**Solving Strategy:** 
1. Identify pairs of triangles within the quadrilateral.
2. Use the given tick marks to determine which sides and angles are equal.
3. Apply the properties of congruence (Side-Side-Side, Angle-Side-A
