Answer:

Explanation:

x = 12

the triangle was made smaller (i forget what the term is)

it was made smaller by
1(1)/(3)

to find that you divide 24 by its equivalent side on the other triangle which would be 18

24 / 18 =
1(1)/(3)

to find what x is equal to you have to find the equivalent side on the other triangle. this would be 16. since the triangle with 16 is bigger the equation is:

16 /
1(1)/(3) = 12

so x = 12
