Question

The two triangles are similar. What is the value for the ? ? Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answer 1

Answer:

KJ = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given diagram, since the figure are similar we can compare their sides.

So that,

$\frac{JL}{PR}$ = $\frac{JK}{PQ}$

Let KJ be represented by x. But;

JL = 28, PR = 42 and PQ = 33

Thus,

$\frac{28}{42}$ = $\frac{x}{33}$

x = $\frac{28*33}{42}$

  = $\frac{924}{42}$

  = 22

x = 22

The n,

KJ = 22
