Respuesta :

3x = x + 8
-x    -x
2x = 8
/2    /2
x = 4
since angle L and N are the same you would set the 2 sides equal to each other

Answer:  The correct option is

(A) 12.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the length of MN from the figure shown.

From the figure, we note that LMN is an isosceles triangle where

[tex]m\angle L=m\angle N=63^\circ,~~LM=3x,~~MN=x+8.[/tex]

We know that

in an isosceles triangle, the lengths of the sides opposite to the equal angles are equal.

So, in triangle LMN, we have

[tex]LM=MN\\\\\Rightarrow 3x=x+8\\\\\Rightarrow 3x-x=8\\\\\Rightarrow 2x=8\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{8}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x=4.[/tex]

Therefore, the length of side MN is

[tex]MN=x+8=4+8=12.[/tex]

Thus, the required length of MN is 12 units.

Option (A) is CORRECT.
