Check out the attached image. We see that angle J is opposite side KL, angle K is opposite side LJ, and angle L is opposite side JK.

Rule: The longest side is opposite the largest angle. The smallest side is opposite the smallest angle.

Based on that rule, we can say that

* Angle J is the largest because it's opposite the largest side KL = 14

* Angle K is the smallest since it's opposite the side LJ = 3 which is the smallest side

* Angle L is in between J and K because this angle is opposite the side which is medium in length compared to the others.

Therefore the order of angles, from largest to smallest is: J, L, K

So,

Angle J > Angle L > Angle K

is the final answer (second to very last of the options you have)
