Calculate JK if LJ = 14, JM = 48, and LM = 50

JK = 6.86

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

LJ = 14

JM = 48

LM = 50

∠JML = 16.26°

Given that ∠JML is bisected by KM, we apply the angle bisector theorem which states that a ray that bisects an interior angle of a triangle bisects the opposite (bisected angle facing side) in the proportion of the ration of the other two sides of the triangle.

From the angle bisector theorem, we have;

LM/JM = LK/JK

50/48 = LK/JK................(1)

LK + KJ = 14.....................(2)

From equation (1), we have;

LK = 25/24×JK

25/24×KJ + JK = 14

JK×(25/24 + 1) = 14

JK × 49/24 = 14

JK = 14×24/49 = 48/7. = 6.86.

JK = 6.86

answer with step-by-step explanation:

a. ∠j is supplementary to ∠k - true:

(opposite angles of a trapezoid are supplementary which means that they add up to 180 degrees)

b. kl is parallel to jm - true:

(opposite sides are parallel to each other in a trapezoid)

c. jk is perpendicular to kl - false:

(clearly, jk does not make a right angle with kl)

d. jk is parallel to lm - false:

(jk and lm are two lines opposite in direction to each other so they cannot be parallel)

e. ∠j is congruent to ∠m - true:

(the angles on each side of the base are congruent)

f. ∠j is congruent to ∠k - false:

(the angles on the same side but opposite side of the base are not congruent)

341

step-by-step explanation:

all you have to do is 9x31 (which equals 279) and then 20x31 (which equals 620). then you have to subtract. 620-279=341.
