Answer:

x=75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem.  Put the side of the small triangle over the side of the large triangle.

42           50

------ = ----------

42+63        50+x

42           50

------ = ----------

105          50+x

Using cross products

42(50+x) = 50*(105)

2100+42x = 5250

Subtract 2100 from each side

2100-2100+42x = 5250-2100

42x =3150

Divide by 42

42x/42 = 3150/42

x = 75
