Answer: C

Explanation:

Since the sides are marked with the little lines, you know they are congruent with each other. Since the sides are congruent, you know the hypotenuse will be congruent.

You can argue that these triangles are similar, but the difference is that similar triangles are the same shape, but not the same size. These triangles are congruent because they are the same size and shape. Therefore, the hypotenuse is congruent.
