Verified Answer :

Answer:

AAS

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the picture are two triangles with common side OM.

L and N are on either side of OM

In triangles OML and OMN, given that

angle L = angle N

and OM is perpendicular to LN.

Hence in these two triangles OML, and OMN we have

OM=OM (reflexive property)

Angle L = angle N(given)

Angle OML = angle OMN (perpendicular)

Thus two angles and one corresponding side are equal

Hence by AAS property the two triangles are congruent.

(since side is not included by the angles)
