Solve for x

Please help me answer this it's for Geometry


​

Answer 1

x = 10

Explanation:

Segment representing 3x is midsegment of the given triangle.

so, by midsegment formula:

`3x = (1)/(2) (4x + 20) \\ \\ \implies \: 3x = (1)/(2) * 2(2x + 10) \\ \\ \implies \: 3x = 2x + 10 \\ \\ \implies \:3x - 2x = 10 \\ \\\implies \: x = 10`
