Given:

The given diagram is shown in Figure 1

  Geometry, Student Edition, Chapter 7.2, Problem 51HP

Figure 1

Calculation:

Consider that the similar triangles are the triangles that have same shape. The triangles that have same measures of the length of the sides are called the congruent triangles.

Consider the side length ratio for the proportion is,

  BEED=ABBE12x=36121x=3612(12)x=4

Thus, the required value of x=4 .
