Proving triangles congruent?

I'm studying for final exams and theres this one easy, yet confusing problem I'm having difficulty understanding.It involves congruent triangles . The question is asking to identify the correct congruence statement:

a. CAB = DAC

b. ABC = ACD

c. ACB = ACD

d. The triangles can't be proven congruent (They're 2 right triangles combined, so it can he proven by the hypotenuse theorem)

Anyways, aren't the first three answers the EXACT same? Is there some kind of order angles of a triangle need to be in? *So confused*

Update 2:

@Hey do you mind elaborating that? On the picture i posted, it was just a guess. I'm not entirely sure what's the correct way to name the triangles or any other shapes
