Answer:

x = 4

FE = 8

Explanation:

Congruent means equal. Notice how both F and C equal 30 degrees while line AC and line DF are both equal to 9 inches. This means we can equal line CB to line FE to find the value of x:

2x = x + 4

Isolate variable x by subtracting both sides by x:

2x - x = x - x + 4

x = 4

Check your work:

2(4) = 4 + 4

8 = 8

Correct
