The two triangles are similar. What is the value of x?

Mathematics

If they are similar, their sides are proportional. The scale factor would be 20/28, which is 5/7.

5/7 = 3x/4x+2
Cross multiply
20x+10 = 21x
subtract 20x on both sides
10 = x

x = 10

Answer:

x = 2\sqrt{34}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras identity in the right triangle

x² = 10² + 6² = 100 + 36 = 136 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{136} = \sqrt{4(34)} = 2\sqrt{34}
