The point K is given on the segment EF. The segment EK is 4 cm shorter than the segment EF. Find the length of the segment KF.

Point K divides segment EF into two segments: EK and EF.

In equality it looks like this:

EF = EK + EF.

Since, according to the conditions of the problem, we know that the EK segment is shorter than the EF segment by four centimeters, then:

EF = EK + 4.

This means that the second segment KF is 4 cm.

Answer: 4 cm.
