In triangle △JKL, ∠JKL is right angle, and KM is an altitude. JK=24 and JM=18, find JL.

JL = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the above question that:

In triangle △JKL, ∠JKL is right angle, and KM is an altitude. JK=24 and JM=18, find JL.

From the attached diagram, we can see that

JL : JK = JK: JM

Therefore,

JL/ JK = JK /JM

Where JL = Unknown

JK = 24

JM = 18

JL/ 24 = 24/18

Cross Multiply

24 × 24 = JL × 18

Divide both sides by 18

JL = (24 × 24) /18

JL = 576/18

JL = 32

if you explain the the question more correctly i might be able to answer this better

step-by-step explanation:

the length of o'p' is .

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the quadrilateral m'n'o'p' is the image of quadrilateral mnop after dilation.

the center of dilation is origin and the scale factor is 1.5.

in dilation the image and preimge are similar figures. it means the sides of image and preimage are proportional.

the scale factor is defined as

the scale factor is 1.5.

multiply both sides by op.

note: if the value of op is given, then multiply the value of op with 1.5 to get the length of side o'p'.

therefore length of o'p' is .
