which congruence postulate or theorem would you use to prove MEX?
HL congruence theorem
The hl congruence theorem for right triangle special case of?
It is a special case of:the 3 sides (SSS) congruence, using Pythagoras,the 2 sides and included angle (SAS) congruence, using the sine rule.
What must you have in order to use the HL postulate?
geometry
What does hl mean in reference to geometry?
HL - usually in upper case - stands for "Hypotenuse - Leg". It is a specialized triangle congruence theorem, the "regular ones are SSS, SAS, and ASA. HL says that in two right triangles, if the hypoteneuses and a pair of legs (the sides forming the right angle) are congruent, then the triangles are congruent.
What does the HL Congruence Theorem state?
HL Congruence Theorem says: If the hypotenuse and one leg of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle, then the two right triangles are congruent.sss

What does the HL congruence postulate apply to?
right triangle
The H in HL theorem stands for?
hypotenuse
Is The HL Congruence Postulate of Triangles only for right triangles?
yes
What denote a congruence theorem for right triangle that may be use?
HL and HA

How do you prove the HL postulate?
My geometry teacher uploads his lessons to YouTube. The proof itself starts at 1:28.
What is the hl theorem?
The hypotenuse leg theorem states that any two right triangles that have a congruent hypotenuse and a corresponding, congruent leg arecongruent triangles.
Why does the SSA postulate work only with the right triangle?
You can't use SSA or ASS as a postulate because it doesn't determine that the triangles are congruent; right triangles are most likely determined by HL: hypotenuse leg- genius!
