I am aware of Whitney's approximation theorem for manifolds without boundary but I was wondering if there is reference which states the above theorem for manifolds with boundary. Thank you.

$\begingroup$ @MikeMiller thanks a lot So should I delete this question or should I let it stay as it is? $\endgroup$– happymathNov 2, 2015 at 3:37

$\begingroup$ It's up to you. Perhaps you could find the precise reference to the appropriate theorem in Hirsch's book and post it as an answer, in case some other weary traveler finds it useful. $\endgroup$– user98602Nov 2, 2015 at 3:38

One proof is given in my Introduction to Smooth Manifolds (2nd ed.), Theorem 9.27.
