Answer:

Option (A).

Explanation:

"Two line segments are called to be perpendicular if the angle between them is 90°."

"A bisector of a line segment divides the segment in two equal parts."

By adding these two statements, "a perpendicular bisector of a segment divides the segment in two equal parts and the angle between them is 90°."

In this question, FG is the perpendicular bisector of HI at point Q.

Therefore, HQ ≅ IQ

Option (A) will be the answer.
