Answer

Given, statement "If two sides and an angle of one triangle are equal to two sides and an angle of another triangle, then the two triangles must be congruent."

The above statement is true and the triangles can be congruent by two axioms A.A.S. or A.S.A.

So, statement 1 is true.

Two triangles are congruent (by S.S.S. axiom) when all corresponding sides are equal in length, and all corresponding angles are equal in measure.

So, statement 2 is true.

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
