Given:

m∠KLJ = 38°

Let's find the measure of angle JLM.

We have the figure of the rhombus below:

A rhombus has equal opposite angles and consecutive angles sum up to 180 degrees.

Given the diagonal bisect the angles, we have:

m∠KLJ = m∠MLJ = 38°

m∠KLJ + m∠MLJ + m∠JML = 180

Thus, we have:

38 + 38 + m∠JML = 180

76 + m∠JML = 180

Subtract 76 from both sides of the equation:

76 - 76 + m∠JML = 180 - 76

m∠JML = 104°

Therefore, the measure of angle JML is 104 degrees.

ANSWER:

104°
