Answer:

x = 10.5 cm

Explanation:

Find the value of x, given that the two triangles are similar.

Given that the two triangles are similar we can solve with a proportion

6 : 2 = x : 3.5

x = 6 * 3.5 : 2

x = 21 : 2

x = 10.5

Answer:

10.5 is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Due to the fact Triangle CAB has "6" as its length, and Triangle FDE has "2" as its length, you multiply 3.5 and 3.

3.5 x 3=10.5

2 x 3=6

3.5/2=10.5/6, so the answer is 10.5.
