Explain why the indicated triangles are congruent.NK = LK. ?NKM ? ?LKM. Explain how you know that NM = LM.  

What will be an ideal response?


Since NK = LK,   ? . ?NKM ? ?LKM is given.   ?  . So two sides and an included angle of ?LKM are congruent to the corresponding parts of ?NKM. So ?LKM ? ?NKM by SAS. Since ?LKM ? ?NKM,   ?  and therefore NM = LM.
