SOMEONE CHECK MY WORK. I THINK ITS THE LAST ONE The following is an incorrect flowchart proving that point L, lying on which is a perpendicular bisector of , is equidistant from points J and K: What is the error in this flowchart? (5 points) JL and KL are equal in length according to the definition of a midpoint. The arrow between ΔJNL ≅ ΔKNL and points in the wrong direction. Segments JL and KL need to be constructed using a straightedge. Triangles JNL and KNL are congruent by the Angle-Angle Side (AAS) Postulate. Screenshot in the comments

@lochana @ribhu

OpenStudy (lochana):

last one i guess.

Why do you think that @lochana

Directrix (directrix):

In this option posted in the question, something is missing. >>The arrow between ΔJNL ≅ ΔKNL and points in the wrong direction. The arrow between ΔJNL ≅ ΔKNL and ? what? points in the wrong direction. @agevd12

Directrix (directrix):

This is not the error: Triangles JNL and KNL are congruent by the Angle-Angle Side (AAS) Postulate. ------- The triangles are congruent by SAS Postulate as stated on the flow chart.

OpenStudy (lochana):

because given triangles are congruent by SAS postulate. not the AAS. reasons for congruence 1.NL ≅ NL (common for both triangles) 2.JN ≅ NK(since N is middle point of JK) 3. m>JNL ≅ m>KNL = 90 (since lines are perpendicular to each other)
