Answer:

A

Explanation:

Calculate the lengths of JK and JL using the distance formula

d =
\sqrt{(x_(2)-x_(1))^2+(y_(2)-y_(1))^2 }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = J(2, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = K(- 4, 2)

JK =
√((-4-2)^2+(2-1)^2)

=
√((-6)^2+1^2)

=
√(36+1)

=
√(37) ≈ 6.1 units

Repeat with (x₁, y₁ ) = J(2, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = L(7, 4)

JL =
√((7-2)^2+(4-1)^2)

=
√(5^2+3^2)

=
√(25+9)

=
√(34) ≈ 5.8 units

Thus JK is longer than JL → A
