Answer:

x is equal to 27

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, start by making a proportion. In order to do so, you need to set it up using the smaller triangle on the right and the larger triangle on the left.

39/x = 65/(x + 18)

Now cross multiply to solve.

65*x = 39(x + 18)

65x = 39x + 702

26x = 702

x = 27
