Answer:

HL

Explanation:

The two larger triangles shown in the diagram above each has a corresponding leg that is congruent to each other (BC = BC).

Also, we are given that the hypotenuse AC of one is congruent to the hypotenuse DB of the other.

This satisfy the Hypotenuse-Leg Congruence Theorem. Thus, the two larger triangles are congruent based on the HL Congruence Criterion which says two triangles are congruent if the leg and hypotenuse of one is congruent to the corresponding leg and hypotenuse of the other.
