As the Americans were losing ground and deciding to surrender, General Sam Houston rallied a small force, destroyed the Mexican Army, captured Santa Anna, and forced him to sign a treaty granting Texas independence.


So, the correct option for this question is B that both countries had to approve the annexation.


The other options are incorrect as:


  • Option A is incorrect as paying debts by Texas would not annex Texas by the united states they have to approve the annexation.


  • Option C is incorrect as  Mexico did not approve Taxation taxes defeated the Mexican army.


As a result, from 1836 to 1845, Texas was an independent republic known as The Lone Star Republic. Slavery was the fundamental reason behind this.

The United States did not want to annex Texas because it would have upset the equilibrium of slave and free states achieved by the Missouri Compromise of 1820.

Thus, option B is correct as it was required before Texas could be annexed by the United States.
