HL Congruence: The Special Case of Right Triangles
- Ensure that both triangles in question are right triangles.
- Identify and compare the lengths of the hypotenuses and one of the legs of both triangles.
- If both the hypotenuse and one leg are of equal length in the two triangles, then they are congruent by the HL theorem.
Examples
Practice Questions:
- Are right triangles with a hypotenuse of \(17 \text{ cm}\) and one leg of \(8 \text{ cm}\), and another triangle with a hypotenuse of \(17 \text{ cm}\) and one leg of \(8 \text{ cm}\) congruent by the HL Congruence theorem?
- Are right triangles with a hypotenuse of \(20 \text{ cm}\) and one leg of \(16 \text{ cm}\), and another triangle with a hypotenuse of \(20 \text{ cm}\) and one leg of \(15 \text{ cm}\) congruent by the HL Congruence theorem?
- Yes
- No
