Answer:

Option D. 9.2 units.

Explanation:

In the ΔJKL ⇒ ∠J + ∠K + ∠L = 180

∠J + 67 + 74 = 180° ⇒ ∠J = 39°

In the given triangle JKL we apply law of sines


(SinK)/(JL) =
(SinJ)/(KL) =
(SinL)/(JK)

Now we take
(SinK)/(JL) =
(SinJ)/(2.3)


(Sin67)/(JL) =
(Sin39*)/(2.3)

JL =
((2.3)Sin67)/(Sin39)


((2.3)(0.92))/((0.6293)) = 3.36 units

Now
(SinL)/(JK) =
(SinJ)/(KL)


(Sin74)/(JK) =
(Sin39)/(2.3)

JK =
(2.3(Sin74))/((Sin39))

=
(2.3(0.9613))/((0.6293))

= 3.51 units

So perimeter of the triangle = 3.36 + 3.51 + 2.3 = 9.15 units ≈ 9.2 units.

Option D is the answer.
