Which of these best describes the hypotenuse-angle theorem?

Select one:

AIf the hypotenuse and an acute angle of a right triangle are similar to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, then the triangles are similar
BIf a side and an acute angle of a right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
Cnone of these
DIf the hypotenuse and an acute angle of a right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Verified Answer :

The hypotenuse angle theorem basically states that if the hypotenuse and an acute angle of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and an acute angle of another right triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

So I would say D is correct

Answer:

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse angle theorem states that - if the hypotenuse and an acute angle of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and an acute angle of another right triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

So as per definition, option D is correct.

d. If the hypotenuse and an acute angle of a right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
