@butterflydreamer u got this one XD

radar · Answer

The figure is a kite, note that the diagonals form right angles at their intersection.  This being the case what do you know about sides JL and KL?

radar · Answer

The relationship between JL and KL will allow you to solve for x.  When you have x, then you will know what KP is......as it is 7x + 10.

anonymous · Answer

sides JL and KL are equal and they equal 20

anonymous · Answer

& x= 2

radar · Answer

Now that you have solved for x, compute the distance of KP
