Here, You need to apply "Proportionality Theorem"
According to this theorem, the ratio of components of a leg would be equal to the ratio of corresponding components of another leg.

In mathematical form, 
AB/BD = AC/CD

Substitute their values, 
36/24 = x/18
2/3 = x/18
x = 18*3 / 2
x = 54 / 2
x = 27

In short, Your Answer would be 27

Hope this helps!

P= f/a solve this formula for a
tresset_1 [31]
P=f/a

If we're solving for "a", we need to isolate it onto one side of the equation. To do this, divide by f. 
P/f=a

Here's your answer!
<em>
</em><em></em>Don't fret. It's the same as a normal equation.

Let's say we have 4x=16. You would divide by 4, right? So you'd have x=16/4, which is 4
But instead of 4, let's write a P, and instead of 16, an f. Px=f. If I'm solving for x, all I'd do is divide by P on both sides. x=f/P. See?

Going back to the original equation, P=f/a, to solve for f, you would have to multiply by a.  Your answer would be Pa=f.
