Answer:

x = 3

Explanation:

The two triangles at the left have the same angles and share a side, so they are congruent. Therefore, the vertical side is also 6x−2.

Using the same logic, the two triangles on the right have the same angles and share a side, so they are congruent. Therefore, the vertical side is also 9x−11.

So:

6x − 2 = 9x − 11

9 = 3x

x = 3
