Given:

KN is a diameter of the circle.

LP⊥KN.

MO⊥KN.

Since KN is a diameter of the circle, LP⊥KN and MO⊥KN, the diameter KN bisects the lines MO and LP.

So, NR is a perpendicular bisector to chord MO.

So, arcs MN and NO will be equal.

Similarly, since KT is a perpendicular bisector to chord LP, arcs LK and KP are equal.

Since arc LK=arc KP and arc NM=arc NO, arc KM=arc OK.

Hence, arc LM=arc OP.

Therefore, congruent arcs are

i) arc OK and arc KM.

ii) arc LM and arc OP.

Which pairs of arcs are congruent ? Select all that apply.-example-1
