Solution

The correct option is A True

If hypotenuse and an acute angle of a right triangle are equal to the hypotenuse and the corresponding acute angle of another right triangle, then we can say that all the three angles of both the triangles will be equal by angle sum property of triangle. And since one side i.e. hypotenuse of one triangle is already equal to the hypotenuse of another triangle therefore the two triangles will be congruent by ASA congruence rule.

Hence, the above statement is true.
