Answer:
The measure of KL is 6 centimeters.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that △JKL∼△QRS.
The corresponding sides of two similar triangles are proportional.
[tex]\frac{JK}{QR}=\frac{KL}{RS}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{8}{12}=\frac{KL}{9}[/tex]
[tex]8\times 9=KL\times 12[/tex]
Divide both sides by 12.
[tex]KL=\frac{72}{12}[/tex]
[tex]KL=6[/tex]
Therefore we can say that if △JKL∼△QRS, then the measure of KL is 6 centimeters.
