The calculated value of x in the figure is 4

How to determine the value of x in the figure

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

The triangle

From the figure, we can see that

The line DE bisects the line AB and the line AC

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

(x + 1) * 2 = 4x -6

So, we have

x + 1 = 2x - 3

Evaluate the like terms

x = 4

Hence, the value of x is 4
