The value of x is equal to 14.
 
Since the bottom side is equal to 3 of the small triangle and the side of the larger triangle is equal to 9, that means that it was dilated by a factor of 3, since 3 * 3 = 9
So, the other side of 5, of the smaller triangle needs to be also be dilated by a factor of 3, so the new side is 15.
The larger triangle tells us that the side is x + 1, but we know that it is equal to 15. Since they are the same, we make them equal and solve for x
So, 15 = x + 1
We subtract 1 to isolate x and we get
14 = x
So, x is equals to 14.
I hope this helps.
YOU'RE WELCOME :D

(05.01)Which equation can be used to calculate the area of the shaded triangle in the figure below?
Marina86 [1]

Equation of shaded triangle is \frac{1}{2} (14\times8).

Solution:

Length of the rectangle = 14 ft

Breadth of the rectangle = 8 ft

Area of the rectangle = length × breadth

                                    = 14 × 8

In this rectangle the diagonal splits the rectangle into two equal halves.

Area of the shaded triangle = Half of area of rectangle

                                              $=\frac{1}{2} (14\times8)

Area of the shaded triangle = \frac{1}{2} (14\times8)

Hence the equation can be used to calculate the area of the shaded

triangle is \frac{1}{2} (14\times8).
