Geometry Level 3

Given two triangles A B C ABC and D E F DEF such that A B = D E AB=DE , B C = E F BC=EF and A = D \angle A=\angle D . Must it be true that the triangles A B C ABC and D E F DEF are similar?

If C 9 0 \angle C\neq 90^\circ there are two cases, one is F = C \angle F=\angle C (which means not only similar, but also congruent), and the other one is F = 18 0 C \angle F=180^\circ - \angle C (which means not similar).
