HL congruence theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

Two sides and the non-included right angle of one right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle.

So, the congruence theorem that can be used to prove that the triangles are congruent is - HL congruence theorem.

The hypotenuse leg theorem states that if the hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle, then both the triangles are congruent.

Hypotenuse Leg

It would not be SSA OR AS$ as those are not congruency theorems. You can remember it by never spelling the bad word.
