The value of x is 12.15 inches when both the rectangles are similar.
According to the question,
We have the following information:
We have two figures of rectangle which are similar and measurements of their length and width is given.
We know that when two figures are similar then it means that the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.
So, we have the following expression for these two rectangles:
40/18 = 27/x
Using the cross multiplication method:
40*x = 18*27
Dividing both the sides of the equation by 40:
x = (18*27)/40
x = 12.15 inches
Hence, the value of x is 12.15 inches when both the rectangles are similar.
