Solve for x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary. JM is 11.7, ML is 23.3, KN is 9.3, NL is x.

Use the intersecting chords (or secants) product: JM · ML = KN · NL.

So 11.7(23.3) = 9.3(x).

11.7 × 23.3 = 272.61, so x = 272.61 / 9.3 ≈ 29.303...

Rounded to the nearest tenth: x ≈ 29.3.
