Let's simplify step-by-step.

x−y−(x+y)

Distribute the Negative Sign:

=x−y+−1(x+y)

=x+−y+−1x+−1y

=x+−y+−x+−y

Combine Like Terms:

=x+−y+−x+−y

=(x+−x)+(−y+−y)

=−2y

Triangle HIJ is similar to triangle KLM. Find the measure of side MK. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

$MK\approx 87.7$

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, similar polygons have corresponding sides in a constant proportion. Therefore, we can set up the following proportion (ratio of corresponding sides) to solve for $MK$ :

$\frac{20}{13}=\frac{MK}{57},\\MK=\frac{57\cdot 20}{13}\approx \boxed{87.7}$
