Triangle JKL is a right triangle with the altitude to the hypotenuse line LM. What is the geometric mean of JM and KM? A=KL. B= JL. C=LM. D= JK

In a right-angled triangle the length of the altitude drawn to the hypotenuse is the geometric mean of the measures
of segments the altitude divides the hypotenuse.
