The calculated value of x if triangle DBZ is an equilateral triangle is 7

How to determine the value of x

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

BZ = 9x + 112

Also, we have

DB = 5x + 140

Using the above as a guide, we have the following:

DB = BZ

So, we have

5x + 140 = 9x + 112

This gives

9x - 5x = 140 - 112

4x = 28

So, we have

x = 7

Hence, the value of x is 7
