The length of the x in the diagram is 12.

We can set up the following equation using the similar triangles that are created when you have an altitude in a right triangle.

If you subtract 16 from 25, you get 9, which is the length of the segment next to the 16.

x^2 = 16(9)
x^2 = 144
x = 12

6v x 3= 18v

so it becomes 12v+18v
then add 12 + 18 I think
