Answer:
Choice A. Segment LM is congruent to segment LO.
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangles LMX and LOX are right triangles since we see that each one has a right angle.
Segment LX is congruent to itself. Segment LX is a side of both triangles. It is a leg of both triangles, so we already have a leg of one triangle congruent to a leg of the other triangle.
For the HL theorem to work, we need a leg and the hypotenuse of one triangle to be congruent to the corresponding parts of the other triangle. Since we already have a pair of legs, we need a pair of hypotenuses.
The hypotenuses of the triangles are segments LM and LO.
Answer: A. Segment LM is congruent to segment LO.
