Let x be the length of WX


(16)/(28)=(x)/(24)\rightarrow x=24\cdot(16)/(28)=(96)/(7)

let y be the length of YZ. We get


(16)/(28)=(y)/(14)\rightarrow y=14\cdot(16)/(28)=8

let z be the length of AD


(28)/(16)=(z)/(12)\rightarrow z=12\cdot(28)/(16)=21

let c be the length of DB and d the length of ZX we get


(21)/(12)=(c)/(d)\rightarrow d\cdot(7)/(4)=c
