Answer:
x = 3.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle bisector divides the segments proportionally. This means they satisfy ...
bottom segment / side segment = x/6 = (6-x)/4
Multiplying by 12 gives ...
2x = 3(6 -x)
2x = 18 -3x . . . . . eliminate parentheses
5x = 18 . . . . . . . . add 3x
x = 3.6 . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

I like to try to work these mentally. The total of side lengths is 10, so the total base length (6) is 6/10 = 0.6 times that. Then x will be 0.6 times the left side length: 0.6·6 = 3.6 = x.
Yes, they are.
If the triangles have three corresponding angles equal means that they are either similar or congruent.
The definition of congruent means that the sides have the same length. That is precisely what the statement says.
So, being the lengths of the corresponding angles the same the two triangles are identical, this is they are congruent.
