Answer:

TU ≅ CB

Explanation:

HL Postulates that when a leg and the hypotenuse of a right triangle are congruent to a corresponding leg and hypotenuse of another, then both right triangles are congruent.

Both right triangles shown in the diagram above is indicated to possess corresponding lengths of a leg, that is side UV ≅ side BA

We need an additional information that shows that the hypotenuse, TU, of ∆TUV is congruent to the hypotenuse, CB of ∆CBA.

Therefore, additional information needed is TU ≅ CB
