The triangles are similar triangles, so the proportion of the corresponding sides are the same.

Make a comparison.

\frac{\text{hypotenuse}}{\text{upright side}} = \frac{\text{hypotenuse}}{\text{upright side}}

In this case, you can input the numbers as follows.

(x)/(2)= (54)/(12)

Solve for x
Move 2 to the right side, and 2 will be a numerator
x =
(54(2))/(12)
x =
(108)/(12)
x = 9

The value of x is 9, the answer is first option
