Question

Find the value of x. In a triangle, a rectangle segment scenario. Not able to figure out the equation when we have 2 adjacent sides.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3

Explanations:

From the given diagram, the two sides indicated are equal in length that is:

$5x-3=10x-18$

Simplify for the value of "x"

$\begin{gathered} 5x-10x=-18+3 \\ -5x=-15 \\ x=\frac{15}{5} \\ x=3 \end{gathered}$

Hence the value of x from the figure is 3
