Answer:

The congruent segments are LN and NK ⇒ C

Explanation:

If a line is a perpendicular bisector of another line, that means this line intersects the other line in its midpoint and form right angles around this point

∵ Line JM is the perpendicular bisector of line LK

→ That means JM intersect LK at the midpoint of LK

∵ Line JM intersects line LK at point N

∴ Point N is the midpoint of LK

N divides LK into two segments LN and NK

N is the midpoint of LK

→ That means LN equals NK

LN = NK

The congruent segments are LN and NK
