Not enough info.

I don't have the figure to look at.

Where is JN?
Where is JL?
Where is KL?

Is this a triangle, a square, etc?

Without a detailed description, your question cannot be answered.

Sorry, I was trying to draw the figure

here's a link to the photo:

Its a triangle with JN and NM on the left side and JK and KL on the right side. NK is a horizontal line in the middle of the triangle. The triangle isn't equilateral. The right side is obtuse.
