Short Answer

Expert verified

The complete statement is:A method that can be used to prove right triangles congruent, but cannot be used with other types of triangles, is the hypotenuse leg method.

Step by step solution

01

- Write the hypotenuse leg postulate.

The hypotenuse leg postulate states that if the hypotenuse and a leg of one right angle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

02

- Description of step.

The postulate to prove right angles congruent is hypotenuse leg postulate.

03

- Write the complete statement.

Therefore, the complete statement is: A method that can be used to prove right triangles congruent, but cannot be used with other types of triangles, is the hypotenuse leg method.
