Answer:

The measure of MN is 21 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that △ABC∼△LMN.

The corresponding sides of two similar triangles are proportional.

\frac{AB}{LM}=\frac{BC}{MN}

\frac{8}{12}=\frac{14}{MN}

8\times MN=14\times 12

Divide both sides by 8.

MN=\frac{168}{8}

MN=21

Therefore we can say that if △ABC∼△LMN, then the measure of MN is 21 inches.

AB/LM = BC/MN

8/12 = 14/MN

8(MN) = 12 * 14

8(MN) = 168

MN = 168/8

MN = 21 Hope this helps and please mark as brainliest!
