Answer

In Δ ABC and Δ DEF,

ABDE=BCEF=ACDF\dfrac{\text{AB}}{\text{DE}} = \dfrac{\text{BC}}{\text{EF}} = \dfrac{\text{AC}}{\text{DF}}

From above equation, we can conclude

AB corresponds to DE, BC corresponds to EF and AC corresponds to DF.

∴ Δ ABC ∼ Δ DEF (By SSS postulates)

Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
