Answer:

x = 60 cm

Explanation:

If we assume the figures are similar, then corresponding sides are proportional.

x/36 = 35/21

x = 36(35/21) = 60 . . . . cm

_____

You can consider the ratios of side lengths. Shortest to longest, they are ...

7 : 9 : 12 = 21 : 27 : 36 = 35 : 45 : 60

The smaller figure is 3 times the basic ratio; the larger figure is 5 times the basic ratio.
