any ideas?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No.. honestly im so confused.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the tick mark on KL and OM suggests that KL = OM

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the double tick marks on JL and NM means JL = NM

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

angle L = angle M because of the angle markings are the same so we have KL = OM angle L = angle M JL = NM

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would i just say that they are angled towards each other have the same angles?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

not sure what you mean by that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh wait, nvm I understand. So I would say that the angles equal each other? and thats how they are congruent?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

that's part of why they are congruent
