we know KN=LM, because it looks a parallelogram

3x-4=x+12

3x-x=12+4

Answer:

20

Explanation:

We're king of shown that it's a parallelogram, so we should assume LM = KN (we can't solve it if we don't know if it's a parallelogram).

LM = KN

3x - 4 = x + 12

2x = 16

x = 8

LM = x + 12 = 8 + 12 = 20

KN = 3x - 4 = 3*8 - 4 = 24 - 4 = 20
