Is ΔJNM ~ ΔJLK? Support your answer with a postulate or theorem.
Yes S-A - S
Find the length of JN. Show all your work.
kl is to mn as jl is to jn
kl / mn = jl/jn
8/10 = 3.2 / jn use this to find jn then ln = jn - jl = jn - 3.2
Find the length of JK. Show all your work.
kl / mn = jk/ (jk+ mk)
8/10 = jk/ (jk+1.5) solve for jk
Are these right triangles? use what you have found and are given to see if pythagorean theorem is true
if they ARE right triangles then are of a right triangle = 1/2 leg1 * leg2
