Answer:

KL = 50

Explanation:

∆JML is similar to ∆JNL. it follows that:

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

JM = 4 + 20 = 24

JN = 4

JL = 10 + KL

JK = 10

Plug in the values

[tex] \frac{24}{4} = \frac{10 + KL}{10} [\tex]

[tex] 6 = \frac{10 + KL}{10} [\tex]

Multiply both sides by 10

[tex] 6*10 = \frac{10 + KL}{10}*10 [\tex]

[tex] 60 = 10 + KL [\tex]

Subtract 10 from each side

[tex] 60 - 10 = KL [\tex]

[tex] 50 = KL [\tex]

KL = 50
