Answer: a) similar, AA similarity, ΔKQR

Explanation:

Given: QR || ML therefore,

∠KLM ≡ ∠KQR by Alternate Interior Angles Theorem

∠KML ≡ ∠KRQ by Alternate Interior Angles Theorem

also, ∠RKQ ≡ ∠MKL by Vertical Angles Theorem

Since the angles are congruent then

ΔKLM ≅ ΔKQR by Angle-Angle Similarity Theorem
