Answer:

JK=8

Step-by-step explanation:

the sides are equal so set KL equal to LM

b+5=3b-1

b=6=3b

6=2b

b=3

b+5

3+5

8

Using the property of the sides of a rhombus, the missing length is determined as: B. JK = 8.

What is a Rhombus?

  • A rhombus is a quadrilateral.
  • The four sides of a rhombus are congruent, that is, they have equal measure.

Thus:

KL = ML

Substitute

b + 5 = 3b - 1

  • Solve for b

b - 3b = -5 - 1

-2b = -6

b = 3

Find JK

JK = KL = b + 5

JK = b + 5

  • Plug in the value of b

JK = 3 + 5

JK = 8

Therefore, using the property of the sides of a rhombus, the missing length is determined as: B. JK = 8.
