Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe the answer is A. (Line JK and line LM will be parallel) because lines EF and GH are parallel. Therefore if the are just reflected, the new set of lines will also be parallel.

EF: (-9,1) (-4,9)

[tex]\frac{1-9}{-9+4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-8}{-5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{5}[/tex] or 1.6

GH: (-5,-2) (0,6)

[tex]\frac{-2 - 6}{-5-0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-8}{-5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{5}[/tex] or 1.6

Same slope and different y-intercept means the lines a parallel
