tankabanditka [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up ratios of corresponding sides.  x+2 is to 6 as 2 is to 3:

\frac{x+2}{6}=\frac{2}{3}

Now cross multiply to get

3(x + 2) = 12 and

3x + 6 = 12 so

3x = 6 and

x = 2.  That means that side AB, x + 2, is 2 + 2 which is 4
