This video tutorial covers congruence in right triangles, focusing on the Hypotenuse Leg (HL) theorem. The instructor explains the theorem's application, demonstrating how two right triangles can be proven congruent if they have a congruent hypotenuse and one congruent leg. The video includes examples and a detailed proof of triangle congruence using the HL theorem. The lesson concludes with a summary of key theorems and encourages students to memorize them.
