I don’t have enough info to be sure which side each number labels. Which sides are 22, 15, and 49 on the diagram (e.g. GH = 22, HI = 15, JK = 49)? Or tell me which vertex of one triangle corresponds to which vertex of the other.

If you meant the common correspondence G↔J, H↔K, I↔L and GH = 22 corresponds to JK = 49, and HI = 15 is the side corresponding to the side LJ you want, then the scale factor is 49/22 and

LJ = 15 * (49/22) = 735/22 ≈ 33.4.

If that’s not how the numbers are placed, tell me which side is which and I’ll compute the correct LJ.
