What is the missing reason in the proof

Answer:
Option C. Transitive property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given in the question AB ≅ CD and CF ≅ EB
and we have to prove that AE ≅ FD
Since AB = AE + EB
and CD = CF + FD
AB ≅ CD [Given]
So, AE + EB ≅ CF + FD
Since CF ≅ EB [Given]
So, AE ≅ FD [Transitive property]
Hence Option C. Transitive property of equality will be the answer.
