![### Finding the Length of JK
#### Problem Statement:
Find \( JK \).
#### Diagram Explanation:
The given diagram is a right-angled triangle \( \triangle JKL \) where:
- \( \angle JLK \) is a right angle, indicating that \( JL \) is perpendicular to \( LK \).
- The side \( JM \) is marked as 2.9.
The triangle appears to be isosceles with \( JL \) as the height bisecting base \( MK \). The base \( MK \) is divided into two equal parts, \( ML \) and \( LK \).
#### Steps to Solve:
To find the length of \( JK \), more specific information about the dimensions or relationships within the triangle are required, which are not provided in the diagram alone.
#### Answer Box:
\[ JK = \boxed{\phantom{}} \]
Please refer to additional provided data or assumptions for computing the length of \( JK \) accordingly.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fd39e4536-af56-4cd4-b4a6-67145f8be6a6%2Fe87b2a54-b96d-4929-bb87-0aaeaf980293%2Fnr7rhih_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
