Answer:

HL = LM

Explanation:

We have been given a diagram in which sides AH= EM and AL=EL.

Now we need to find which statement is missing to prove that triangles AHL and EML are congruent using SSS.

SSS means (side - side - side)

Two pair of equal sides are already given so we have completed SS of SSS.

Last "S" means we need one more pair of equal sides so that must be using remaining sides HL and LM

Hence final answer is HL = LM.
