see the picture attached to better understand the problem
we know that
two tangent segments drawn from the same exterior point are congruent
so
JA=JB ,
LA=LC,
KC=KB
JA=13 units
LA=7 units
kC=10 units
hence
perimeter = JA+JB+LA+LC+KC+KB------> 13+13+7+7+10+10------> =60 units
therefore
the answer is
the perimeter of triangle JKL is 60 units
See the attached figure. The original triangle is shown in red (triangle ABC). The line of reflection is the blue dashed line. This is the equation y = x. Reflecting triangle ABC over the line y = x results in the purple triangle A'B'C'.
Note how the x and y values swap places.
We have...
point A = (5,1) turn into point A' = (1,5)
point B = (8,1) turn into point B' = (1,8)
point C = (8,6) turn into point B' = (6,8)
The swap occurs because the rule (x,y) --> (y,x) tells this to happen.
The purple triangle is the final answer.
