Answer:
17.5
Explanation:
Since the triangles are similar, the side lengths are proportional. One way we can solve this is by finding the scale factor for the triangle on the left to the triangle on the right. We can use the two corresponding sides that we know.
Let x = the scale factor
385x = 175 Divide both sides by 385
x =
Simplify by dividing the numerator and the denominator by 35
x =
Take the corresponding side of MK and multiply it by
to find MK
38.5 x
= 17.5
