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 is HL in geometry?
Ah, happy little question there, friend! HL in geometry stands for "Hypotenuse Leg." It's a shortcut we use to prove that two right triangles are congruent. Just remember, in the world of geometry, HL is like a trusty brush in your painting kit - it helps bring harmony and balance to your mathematical creations.
