 HYPOTENUSE LEG
CONGRUENCE THEOREM

Ifthe Hypotenuse and a leg of one

right triangle are congruent to the
corresponding hypotenuse and a leg
of another triangle, then the triangles
are congruent.
 HyL Example : A A

GIVEN: AD BC
BA = AC B D D C
PROVE: ABD ACD
Statement Reasons
1 . ADB and ABC are right Perpendicular form right angles.

2. ADB and ADC are right A triangle with a 90 angle is a right

3. BA = AC Given

4. AD = AD Reflexive
5. ADB = ADC Hypotenuse Leg Postulate

1. CA = AB GIVEN
2. ADC and ADB are right Perpendicular lines create 90 angles.

(HYPOTENUSE-ACUTE ANGLE
) CONGRUENCE THEOREM

Ifthe Hypotenuse and an acute

angle of one right triangle are
congruent to the corresponding
hypotenuse and an acute angle
of another right triangle, then
the triangles are congruent.
EXAMPLE :

PROOF
Let ABC and DEF
be right triangle right
angle at C and F. Let
AB = DE and A =
D.
It is given that A = D and AB = DE.
Since angle C = F are right angles , B =
E.
So, by ASA Congruence , ABC = DEF.
ASA (ANGLE-SIDE-ANGLE)
CONGRUENCE THEOREM

Ifthe two angles and the I

congruent to the corresponding two
angles and an included side of
another triangle, then the triangles
are congruent.
