Question

The image shown has two triangles sharing a vertex: There are two triangles labeled HJK and MLK with a common vertex K. In triangle HJK, angle JHK is labeled as y, and angle HJK is labeled as 65 degrees. In triangle MLK, angle MLK is labeled as 65 degrees. What is the measure of ∠KML, and why? y over 2 , because Triangle JHK is congruent to triangle LMK y + 50 degrees, because Triangle JHK is similar to triangle MLK 115 degrees - y, because Triangle JHK is congruent to triangle LMK y, because Triangle JHK is similar to triangle LMK

Answer 1

The answer is D: "y, because Triangle JHK is similar to triangle LMK".
