Question

HELP AGAIN PLEASE I TRIED IT ON MY OWN AND FAILED :(

Answer 1

Answer:  ∠ J = 62° , ∠ K = 59° , ∠ L = 59°

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that it is an Isosceles Triangle, where L J ≅ K J

It follows that ∠ K ≅ ∠ L

         ⇒ 5x + 24 = 4x + 31

         ⇒   x + 24 =         31

         ⇒   x         =           7

Input the x-value into either equation to solve for  ∠ K &  ∠ L:

∠ K = 5x + 24

      = 5(7) + 24

      = 35 + 24

       = 59

∠ K ≅ ∠ L  ⇒   ∠ L = 59

Next, find the value of  ∠ J:

∠ J +  ∠ K +  ∠ L = 180    Triangle Sum Theorem

∠ J  +   59  +  59 = 180

∠ J          + 118     = 180

∠ J                       = 62
