Answer:

Missing length = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the missing length.

Since the triangles are similar, ∆KLM ~ ∆KRS, therefore, the ratio of their corresponding side lengths would be the same. This implies that:

KL/KR = KM/KS

KL = 65

KR = 65 - 52

KR = 13

KM = 60

KS = x

Plug in the values

65/13 = 60/x

Cross multiply

65*x = 60*13

65x = 780

Divide both sides by 65

65x/65 = 780/65

x = 12
