Answer: B.  HL

HL = hypotenuse leg

We see that WX = PM are the congruent legs (they are the same length due to the similar single tickmark). Also, XY = ME is the congruent pair of hypotenuses. The HL rule only works for right triangles, as the term "hypotenuse" would not apply for a non-right triangle.

The theorem used is HL.

What is theorem?

A theorem is a statement which has been proved true by a special kind of logical argument called a rigorous proof.

Given:

In both triangles

XW = MP  (given)

XY = ME (given)

As, hypotenuse of both triangle is equal and leg of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse.
