Answer: 10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If the two triangles are similar, that means their sides are proportional to each other.

  • JK = 15
  • JL = 15 + 6 = 21
  • JM = 14

The proportion would look like this:

[tex]\frac{JK}{JL} =\frac{JN}{JM}\\[/tex]

Substitute in the values:

[tex]\frac{15}{21} =\frac{JN}{14}[/tex]

Cross-multiply and solve for JN:

[tex]21*JN=15*14\\JN=\frac{15*14}{21} =\frac{210}{21} =10[/tex]

Answer:

10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

JM=14<JL=21

And you know that JN=X<JK=15

You also know that JM=14>JN=x

KL=6 so NM=4

JM= (14) - NM (4)= 10

Hope this makes sense, and can help!
