Geometry math help show work pelase help Jim thanks

===========================================================

Explanation:

JK = LM because opposite sides of a parallelogram are the same length.

Side LM is p units long, where p is a placeholder for a number.

To determine what number replaces p, we can form the proportion shown below

BC/KL = CD/LM

Refer to the drawing below. I've circled the corresponding pieces. Note the color coding. Other equations are possible.

So,

BC/KL = CD/LM

(5.1)/(1.7) = (4.2)/p

5.1p = 1.7*4.2 ....................... cross multiply

5.1p = 7.14

p = (7.14)/(5.1)

p = 1.4

yep b and c r the correct got it! : )
