  • <em>Answer:</em>

<em>x = 4</em>

  • <em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em>Hi there ! </em>

<em>use </em><em><u>Thales theorem</u></em>

<em>x/(x + 8) = 4/12</em>

<em>12x = 4x + 32</em>

<em>12x - 4x = 32</em>

<em>8x = 32</em>

<em>x = 32 : 4</em>

<em>x = 4</em>

<em />

<em>4/(8 + 4) = 4/12</em>

<em>4/12 = 4/12 (true)</em>

<em />

<em>Good luck !</em>
