determine the relationship between the two triangles and whether or not they can be proven to be congruent.
the two triangles are related by
, so the triangles

Explanation:

Step1: Identify triangle markings

Both triangles have a right angle, one pair of congruent legs (marked with +), and one pair of congruent hypotenuses (marked with #).

Step2: Match to congruence rule

This matches the Hypotenuse-Leg (HL) congruence criterion for right triangles, which states that if the hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Answer:

The two triangles are related by the Hypotenuse-Leg (HL) congruence criterion, so the triangles are congruent.
