Answer:

ΔKML Option C

Explanation:

Given right triangle is ΔJKL

Where ∠JKL = 90°

Here KM is perpendicular to LJ.

In triangle ΔJKL & ΔKML

∠JKL ≅ ∠KML (both are right angle)

∠JLK ≅ ∠KLM (common angle in both the triangles)

So,

ΔJKL is similar to ΔKML.

That's the final answer.

I hope it will help you.
