I need the answer asap pls! :)

Answer 1

Answer:

18m

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the given traingles are similar

We get

$\frac{JK}{MN} = \frac{KL}{ML}$

$\frac{JK}{42} = \frac{21}{49}$

$JK = \frac{21 \times 42}{49}$

$JK = \frac{3 \times 7 \times 6 \times 7}{7 \times 7}$

$JK = 3 \times 6 = 18$

$JK = 18$

Hence the distance across river is 18m
