The following is an incorrect flowchart proving that point L, lying on line LM which is a perpendicular bisector of segment JK, is equidistant from points J and K:

Segment JK intersects line LM at point N.

Line LM is a perpendicular bisector of segment JK; Given. Two arrows are drawn from this statement to the following two statements. Angle LNK equals 90 degrees and angle LNJ equals 90 degrees; Definition of a Perpendicular Bisector. Segment JN is congruent to segment NK; Definition of a Perpendicular Bisector. Angle LNK is congruent to angle LNJ; Definition of Congruence. Segment LN is congruent to segment LN; Reflexive Property of Equality. Draw segment JL and segment KL; by Construction. Four arrows from the previous four statements are drawn to the statement triangle JNL is congruent to triangle KNL; Side Angle Side, SAS, Postulate. An arrow from this statement is drawn to the statement segment JL is congruent to segment KL; Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent CPCTC. An arrow from this statement is drawn to JL equals KL; Definition of Congruence. An arrow from this statement is drawn to Point L is equidistant from points J and K; Definition of Equidistant.

What is the error in this flowchart?

An arrow is missing between ∠LNK = 90° and ∠LNJ = 90° and ∠LNK ≅ ∠LNJ.
JL and KL are equal in length, according to the definition of a midpoint.
An arrow is missing between the given statement and ∠LNK ≅ ∠LNJ.
Point L is equidistant from points J and N, not J and K.
