Question

Triangle GHI is similar to triangle JKL. Find the measure of side JK. Round your

Answer 1

Answer:

JK = 18.8

Step-by-step explanation:

7/33 = 4/JK

132 = 7JK

JK = 18.86

Answer 2

Answer:

JK=18.8

Step-by-step explanation:

so we are given that ΔGHI ~ ΔJKL

GI~JL (because corresponding parts of similar triangles are similar)

so GI/JL=ratio of similitude=7/33

GH~JK (corresponding parts of similar triangles are similar)

and GH/JK=ratio of similitude

so:

GH/JK=GI/JL

subsitute known values

4/JK=7/33

cross multiply

7JK=132

divide

JK=132/7

simplify and round

JK≈18.8

hope this helps!
