Missing reasons in a two-column proof often depend on the specific information provided in the problem statement. Without further information, it is difficult to provide the exact missing reasons. However, here is a possible proof for the given statement:
| Statements | Reasons |
| ------------- | -------------- |
| JM = ML | Given |
| ∠JMK = ∠KML | Given |
| JM + MK > JK | Triangle Inequality Theorem (Side-Angle-Side Inequality Theorem) |
| ML + MK > KL | Triangle Inequality Theorem (Side-Angle-Side Inequality Theorem) |
| JK > KL | Substitute JM = ML from statement 1, combine statements 3 and 4 |
Please note that this proof is based on assumptions made due to lack of specific information. The actual missing reasons may vary depending on the context of the problem.
