ASA. This is because the pair of angles is marked equal, along with a pair of sides. and you know that angle K is equal because it is shown as a vertical relationship

A) AAS proves that the two triangles are congruent.

We know that JNK = MLK and KJ = KM because these are given to us.

We know that the angles NKJ and LKM are equal because the lines NL and JM intersect creating a cross. I forget what theorem states that but AAS (Angle Angle Side) is your answer.
