In the kite , ak=9 , jk=15 , and am=16 .

what is jm ?

enter your answer in the box.

kite j k l m with shorter diagonal j l intersecting longer diagonal k m at point a.

The Length of JM is 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

JKLM is a kite in which JL and KM are the diagonals that intersect at point A.

Length of AK = 9    

Length of JK = 15  

Length of AM = 16

Solution,

Since JKLM is a kite. And JL and KM are the diagonals.

And we know that the diagonals of a kite perpendicularly bisects each other.

So, JL ⊥ KM.

Therefore ΔJAK is aright angled triangle.

Now according to Pythagoras Theorem which states that;

"The square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of base and square of perpendicular".

On putting the values, we get;

On taking square root onboth side, we get;

Again By Pythagoras Theorem,

On putting the values, we get;

On taking square root onboth side, we get;

Hence The Length of JM is 20.

well there are two answers for that.

1: you need 120 ones then that will equal up to 120.

2: you could also do one 100 and 2 tens.

those are the answers that i have thought of.
