On a segment AM equal to 22 cm, a point K was marked, such that AK is 16 cm and a point P that PM is 17 cm. Find the length of the segment KP.

It is known that the segment AM is 22 cm.It is also known that the segment AK = 16 cm, and the segment PM = 17 cm.Based on these values, we can say that point P is located on the straight line AM, closer to point A, and point K is located on the line AM, closer to the point M.
1) 17 + 16 = 33 (cm) – the lengths of the segments AK and PM;
Because the points P and K are both on the segment AK and on the segment PM, we will find the length of the segment KP:
2) 33 – 22 = 11 (cm) – the length of the KP segment.
Answer: 11 cm.
