Answer:

  • CNBD -- using the given statement regarding perpendicularity
  • ΔLAW ≅ ΔWKL by ASA -- using the markings on the figure

Explanation:

The given information tells us there is one congruent side in the two right triangles. That is not sufficient to claim congruence of the triangles.

CNBD

__

The figure shows one congruent angle in addition to one congruent side, so the figures can be shown to be congruent using the ASA theorem.

ΔLAW ≅ ΔWKL

_____

Additional comment

∠ALW ≅ ∠KWL
