x=\frac{p q}{m} equation represents the value of side x.

Solution:

The two triangles are similar.

<em>If two triangles are similar, then the corresponding sides are in proportional.</em>

$\Rightarrow \frac{m}{p} =\frac{q}{x}

Do cross multiplication.

$\Rightarrow mx=pq

Divide by m on both sides.

$\Rightarrow \frac{mx}{m} =\frac{pq}{m}

$\Rightarrow x =\frac{pq}{m}

Therefore, x=\frac{p q}{m} equation represents the value of side x.
