question
determine the relationship between the two triangles and whether or not they can be proven to be congruent.
answer attempt 1 out of 2
the two triangles are related by , so the triangles

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the triangles

Both triangles are right - angled (have a \(90^{\circ}\) angle). The markings on the sides indicate that two pairs of corresponding sides are equal.

Step2: Apply congruence criterion

For right - angled triangles, if the hypotenuse and one leg are equal (HL - Hypotenuse - Leg congruence criterion), the triangles are congruent. Here, the equal - marked sides (one is the hypotenuse as it is opposite the right angle in each triangle) and the right angles satisfy the HL criterion.

Answer:

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