Answer:

Option B

Option E

Explanation:

By the use of following postulates we can prove the two right triangles to be congruent.

1). HA - [Equal hypotenuse and an cute angles]

2). LL - [Two legs should be equal]

3). LA - [One leg and one angle must be equal]

4). ASA - [Two angles and the side containing these angles should be equal]

In the given right triangles,

1). OJ ≅ IL

2). ∠O ≅ ∠I

3). ∠J ≅ ∠L

Therefore, two postulates HA, ASA will be applicable for the congruence of the two triangles given.

Options A and E will be the answer.
