Question

Geometry.. Am I right? If not what would the answer be and how?

Answer 1

In this probelm we have that

M is the midpoint of segment JL -----> by MK is a perpendicular bisector

so

JM=ML

substitute the given values

14x-9=8x+3

14x-8x=3+9

6x=12

x=2

Find JM

JM=14(2)-9

JM=28-9

JM=19

JL=2*JM

JL=2*19

JL=38 units
