Answer:

The measure of KL is 12 meters.

Explanation:

It is given that △XYZ∼△DEF.

The corresponding sides of two similar triangles are proportional.


(YZ)/(EF)=(XZ)/(DF)


(10)/(8)=(15)/(DF)


10* DF=15* 8

Divide both sides by 10.


DF=(120)/(10)


DF=12

Therefore we can say that if △XYZ∼△DEF, then the measure of DF is 12 meters.
