Answer:

JK ≈ 6.86 units

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the diagram MK is the angle bisector of ∠LMJ in the triangle LMJ.

Use angle bisector theorem, which states:

an angle bisector of an angle of a triangle divides the opposite side into two parts that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle.

Applied to the given triangle, the ratios are:

LK/JK = LM/JM

Use segment addition postulate and substitute known values to get:

(LJ - JK)/JK = LM/JM
(14 - JK)/JK = 50/48
50JK = 48(14 - JK)
50JK = 672 - 48JK
50JK + 48JK = 672
98JK = 672
JK = 672/98
JK = 6.86 (rounded)

Answer:

JL = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

JL = JK + KL

JK = KL

8x+11 =14x-1

12 = 6x

x = 2

substitute for x:

8(2)+11 + 14(2)-1 = JL

JL = 16+11+28-1

JL = 54
