Mn and kl are parallel. if jm = 7, mk = 21, and ln = 24, what is nj? a. 8 b. 3 c. 10 d. 16

We have from Thales theorem that because the 2 triangles are similar, JM/JK=JN/JL. We have that JN=x, JL=x+24 and that JM=7 and JK=28. Substituting, we get:
x/(x+24)=7/28.
Hence, x/(x+24)=1/4. This leads to 4x=x+24, 3x=24, x=8. We have solved for x=JN and this is equal to 8.

You have 2 sides that are 2 cms and you have 6 sides that are 1/2 cm and you have 4 sides that are 1 cm. the smallest sides are 1/2 the medium sized sides are 1 and the smallest are 1/2. so to find the perimeter you have to add them all up together so your answer will be 11 cm's
