1. **Problem statement:** Given isosceles trapezoid KWLN with sides and angles:
- $KN=19.5$ cm
- $KL=15$ cm
- $m\angle KNL=88^\circ$
- $KW=20$ cm
- Median $AB=12$ cm
Find: 1) $NL$, 2) $m\angle WLN$, 3) $m\angle KWL$, 4) $m\angle WJN$, 5) $WN$, 6) $WL$, 7) $WB$, 8) $m\angle KAB$, 9) $m\angle ABC$, 10) $BL$.
2. **Important properties and formulas:**
- In an isosceles trapezoid, the legs are equal: $KW=NL$ and $KN=WL$.
- The median $AB$ is parallel to bases and equals the average of the bases: $AB=\frac{KN+WL}{2}$.
- Angles adjacent to each leg are equal in isosceles trapezoid.
3. **Step 1: Find $NL$**
Since trapezoid is isosceles, legs are equal: $KW=NL=20$ cm.
4. **Step 2: Find $WL$**
Given $KN=19.5$ cm and $KL=15$ cm.
Since $KN$ and $WL$ are legs, $WL=KN=19.5$ cm.
5. **Step 3: Verify median $AB$ length**
Median formula: $$AB=\frac{KN+WL}{2} = \frac{19.5 + 19.5}{2} = \frac{39}{2} = 19.5$$
But given $AB=12$ cm, so $AB$ is not median of legs but of bases.
6. **Step 4: Find bases $KN$ and $WL$**
Since $AB$ is median of bases $KN$ and $WL$, and $AB=12$ cm,
$$AB=\frac{KN+WL}{2} \Rightarrow 12=\frac{KN+WL}{2} \Rightarrow KN+WL=24$$
Given $KN=19.5$, so
$$WL=24 - 19.5 = 4.5 \text{ cm}$$
7. **Step 5: Find $NL$**
Since trapezoid is isosceles, legs $KW=NL=20$ cm.
8. **Step 6: Find $WN$**
$WN$ is the other base, so $WN=WL=4.5$ cm.
9. **Step 7: Find $WL$**
$WL=4.5$ cm (from step 6).
10. **Step 8: Find angles $m\angle WLN$ and $m\angle KWL$**
Since $m\angle KNL=88^\circ$ and trapezoid is isosceles, angles at $W$ and $L$ are equal.
Using triangle $KNL$, sum of angles is $180^\circ$:
$$m\angle KNL + m\angle KLN + m\angle LKN = 180^\circ$$
Given $m\angle KNL=88^\circ$, and $m\angle KLN = m\angle LKN$ (isosceles triangle),
Let $x = m\angle KLN = m\angle LKN$, then
$$88 + 2x = 180 \Rightarrow 2x = 92 \Rightarrow x = 46^\circ$$
So $m\angle WLN = 46^\circ$ and $m\angle KWL = 46^\circ$.
11. **Step 9: Find $m\angle WJN$**
Point $J$ is intersection of diagonals $KW$ and $NL$.
In isosceles trapezoid, diagonals are equal and intersect symmetrically.
Thus, $m\angle WJN = m\angle KAB = 46^\circ$ (same as base angles).
12. **Step 10: Find $WB$ and $BL$**
Since $AB$ is median, $A$ and $B$ are midpoints of legs.
$WB$ is half of $WL=4.5$ cm, so
$$WB = \frac{WL}{2} = \frac{4.5}{2} = 2.25 \text{ cm}$$
Similarly, $BL$ is half of $KL=15$ cm,
$$BL = \frac{KL}{2} = \frac{15}{2} = 7.5 \text{ cm}$$
**Final answers:**
1) $NL=20$ cm
2) $m\angle WLN=46^\circ$
3) $m\angle KWL=46^\circ$
4) $m\angle WJN=46^\circ$
5) $WN=4.5$ cm
6) $WL=4.5$ cm
7) $WB=2.25$ cm
8) $m\angle KAB=46^\circ$
9) $m\angle ABC=46^\circ$
10) $BL=7.5$ cm
