Answer:

since traingleABC~ADE

AB/BD=BC/DE

9/15=3/X

9X=15×3

X=15×3/9=5

The value of x is 5 units.

We need to solve for x, from the given figure.

What is the similarity of the triangles?

Two triangles are similar if their corresponding angles are congruent and corresponding sides are proportional.

Now, in ΔABC and ΔADE

∠B=∠D=90°

∠EAD=∠CAB (common angles)

So, from AA similarity ABC~ADE

Then, AB/AD=BC/DE

9/15=3/x

9X=15×3

X=15×3/9=5 units

Therefore, the value of x is 5 units.
