If the hypotenuse of a right triangle is congruent to the corresponding part
of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
==========================================
Another contributor, in shock, stopped by to point out:
That may (or may not) be a "hypotenuse theorem", but you really
need to be careful trying to use it, because it's not true!
hypotenuse
The hypotenuse leg theorem states that any two right triangles that have a congruent hypotenuse and a corresponding, congruent leg arecongruent triangles.
Hypotenuse.
Using Pythagoras' theorem the hypotenuse is 10 cm
Using Pythagoras' theorem the hypotenuse is 40 inches
It is Pythagoras' theorem
The hypotenuse angle theorem, also known as the HA 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.'

Hypotenuse.
If two right triangles have (hypotenuse and a leg of one) = (hypotenuse and the corresponding leg of the other) then the triangles are congruent.
Using Pythagoras' theorem the hypotenuse is 10 cm
The hypotenuse is the longest side. In a right-angled triangle, the hypotenuse is always opposite the right angle.
Using Pythagoras' theorem the length of the hypotenuse is 37
Using Pythagoras' theorem the hypotenuse is 40 inches
