line JK bisects LM at point J. Find JM if LJ=23 centimeters.
*bisect means divide it into two equal parts.
since JK bisected LM at J, LJ = JM
therefore, JM = 23 cm
so there,, =)
23 cm
Bisect - Divide into two equal parts. In geometry one learns how to do this hopefully in the first or second week.
Since the line LM is bisected by point J through line K and LJ = 23 then LJ must equal JM. Which means JM = 23. It's a very simple equation.
