Question

Angle JKL is an equilateral triangle jk=13x+5 KL=17x-19 and JL=8x+35

Answer 1

The value of x is 6, then the value of JK is 83, KL is 83 and JL is 83.

What is a triangle?

A triangle is a polygon that has three sides and three vertices. It is one of the basic figures in geometry.

An equilateral triangle is a shape with three sides that have an equal measure of side length.

The 3 sides of triangle JKL are equal to each other, therefore we can equate any of the two sides together to find the unknown variable called x.

So, JK = KL

JK = 13x + 5

KL + 17x - 19

13x + 5 = 17x - 19

Collect like terms;

17x - 13x = 19 + 5

4x = 24

x = 24/4

x = 6

We can now proceed to find the sides;

JK = 13x + 5

13 x 6 + 5

= 78 + 5

= 83

JK = 83

KL = 17x - 19

= 17 x 6 - 19

= 102 - 19

= 83

KL = 83

JL= 8x + 35​

= 8 x 6 + 35

= 48 + 35

= 83

JL = 83

Hence, The value of x is 6, then the value of JK is 83, KL is 83 and JL is 83.
