Answer:

JN = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ JMN and Δ JKL are similar ( AA postulate )

then the ratios of corresponding sides are in proportion, that is

[tex]\frac{JM}{JK}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{JN}{JL}[/tex] ( substitute values )

[tex]\frac{24}{33}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{JN}{JN+12}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{11}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{JN}{JN+12}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

11 JN  = 8(JN + 12)

11 JN = 8 JN + 96 ( subtract 8 JN from both sides )

3 JN = 96 ( divide both sides by 3 )

JN = 32
