Right Triangle Congruence

What does the HL theorem standfor?

• Hypotenuse Leg

• Height Length

• Half Leg

• Hypotenuse Line

If two right triangles have one leg that is congruent and their hypotenuses are congruent, what can we conclude? 

• The triangles are not congruent.

• The triangles are congruent by the HL theorem. 

• The triangles are similar but not congruent.

• The triangles have different angles. 

Which theorem states that if one angle and the hypotenuse of a right triangle are congruent, the triangles are congruent? 

• LA Theorem

• LL Theorem

• HA Theorem

• SAS Theorem

If two right triangles have both legs that are congruent, which theorem applies? 

• HA Theorem

• LA Theorem

• LL Theorem

• SAS Theorem

If you have two right triangles and you know one leg is congruent and one angle is congruent, which theorem can you use? 

• HL Theorem

• HA Theorem

• LL Theorem

• LA Theorem

 What does the HA theorem require to prove that two right triangles are congruent?  

• Two congruent angles and one leg 

• One angle and the hypotenuse 

• Two legs and one angle

• One leg and one angle 

 If two right triangles have the same hypotenuse but different leg lengths, what can be said about the triangles? 

• They are congruent.

• They are both scalene triangles.

• They are similar.

• They are not congruent. 

In the context of the video, which of the following is NOT a method for proving congruence in right triangles? 

• HA

• HL
