Explanation:
As boron has three electrons in the outermost shell and has to form three sigma bonds, it is sp2 hybridised. ... Each oxygen atom is sp3 hybridised. There are six electrons in the outermost shell of oxygen. Two electrons take part in bonding- one with H atom and one with B atom, so they are in separate orbitals.

Hybridization is only valid for central atoms
In boric acid boron is the central atom it's hybridization is sp2
