Answer:
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles will be congruent when corresponding sides are congruent. __
We already have ...
KL ≅ NP . . . = 15 mm
JL ≅ MP . . . = 22 mm
So, we need ...
JK ≅ MN
4y +12 = 32 . . . . substitute given values
This will be the case when ...
4y = 20 . . . . . subtract 12
y = 5 . . . . . . . divide by 4
The value of y that makes the triangles congruent is 5.
