Answer:

JK = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ BKJ and Δ BCA are similar and ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{JK}{AC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{BK}{BC}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{JK}{40}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

5JK = 120 ( divide both sides by 5 )

JK = 24
