Answer:

C. Yes, you can prove that x = 12

Explanation:

My friend is correct because by the HL Congruence Theorem, ∆MNP is congruent to ∆MKL. The hypotenuse and leg of one right ∆ is congruent to the hypotenuse and corresponding leg of the other right ∆. So, enough information was given to prove that x = 12.
