What is the length of Line segment A J if Line segment A B is parallel to lines segment J K?



8 in.


8.75 in.


10.25 in.


14 in.

Answer:

8.75 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for the figure.

As you can see, ∆ HBA & ∆HKJ are similar,

HB/HA = HK/HJ  

3/5.25 = 8/HJ

3HJ/5.25 = 8

3HJ = 42

HJ = 14 in.

AJ = 14 - 5.25

AJ = 8.75 in.

Therefore,  the length of Line segment AJ is 8.75 in.
