Answer:

x = 6; measure of each side 83

Explanation:

Equilateral Triangle means all sides are equal length

Knowing this, you can set up the following equation:

2(JK/KL/JL) = 2(JK/KL/JL) <all lines are interchangeable in the equation as long as they are not the same on both sides>

2(13x+5) = 2(17x-19)

26x+10 = 34x-38

x = 6

Plug in the variable:

13(6) + 5 = 83

17(6) - 19 = 83

8(6) + 35 = 83
