since they're similair then similair sides will be proportional

CB is similair to EF

\frac{6}{8}86 = \frac{3}{4}43

same thing if you try with the hypotenuse AB similair to DE

\frac{13.5}{18}1813.5 = \frac{3}{4}43

So, if you multiply r (DF) by 3/4 you will get the similair side AC

rx 3/4=12

r= 12÷ 3/4

r=16.

i HOPE IT'S HELP
