Answer:

x/45 = 9 m/30
x = 13.5 . . . meters

Step-by-step explanation:

In similar triangles, corresponding sides are proportional. This lets us write an equation involving x. Sides adjacent are proportional to sides opposite the vertical angle.

x/45 = 9/30

Multiplying by 45 gives the solution:

x = 45(9/30) = 13.5 . . . meters
