The value of x in the similar triangles is 18

<h3>How to solve similar triangles?</h3>

Similar triangles have the same shapes but may have different sizes.

Corresponding side of similar triangles are a ratio of each other.

Therefore,

UV / BC = AU / AB

Hence,

UV = 444 units

BC = 703

AU = 20x + 108

AB = 20x + 108 + 273 = 20x + 381

Therefore,

444 / 703 = 20x + 108 /  20x + 381

cross multiply

444( 20x + 381) = 703(20x + 108)

8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924

8880x  - 14060x  = 75924 -  169164

-5180x = -93240

x = -93240 / -5180

x = 18

Therefore, the value of x in the similar triangles is 18
