Answer:

The abbreviation of the postulate or theorem that supports the conclusion that the triangles are congruent.

HL.

Explanation:

The Figure is attached below

Given:

AB = DE ; BC = EF

∠C = ∠F = 90°

To Prove:

ΔACB ≅ ΔDFE

Proof:

Hypotenuse Leg Theorem:

The hypotenuse leg theorem states that any two right triangles that have a congruent hypotenuse and a corresponding, congruent leg are congruent triangles.

The abbreviation is HL

In ΔACB and ΔDFE

AB ≅ DE ……….{Hypotenuse congruent Given}

BC ≅ EF ……….{Given}

∠C ≅ ∠F = 90° …………..{Measure of each angle is 90° given}

ΔACB ≅ ΔDFE ….{Hypotenuse Leg ( HL ) Theorem}
