Point L is on line segment KM. Given LM=11 and KL=4, determine the length KM.

Hey there! I'm happy to help.

Let's think of the line segment KM as a road. It starts at point K and ends at M. You start driving from point K and after 4 miles, you have reached point L. The segment KL is equal to 4 because the distance between K and L is 4.

From point L to point M, you drive 11 miles. You are now at the end of the road. We want to find out how long the road is.

From point K to point L, you drove for 4 miles.

Then, from L to M, you drove 11.

We combine these...

11+4=15

The length of KM is 15.

Have a wonderful day! :D

area = length x width

length = 2 x width

32 = 2 x width x width

32 = 2 x width^2

36 = width ^2  

width = 6

length = 12

area is 32

perimeter = 2 x 12 + 2 x 6 = 24 + 12 = 36

step-by-step explanation:

answer: the angel abc is 30°,and the abc is a triangle where the angel bac is 90°

so ac is the half of 24=12ft,and from the pythagorean theorem we find ba

ba=√bc^2-ac^2=√576-144=√432=12√3ft

so bac is 12+12√3=12(1+√3)ft
