Solution for above problem :

The Above triangles are similar, Therefore the corresponding sides would be proportional.

that is : -

  • [tex] \dfrac{16}{12} = \dfrac{6x}{5x - 2} [/tex]

  • [tex]16 \times (5x - 2) = 12 \times 6x[/tex]

  • [tex]80x - 32 = 72x[/tex]

  • [tex]80x - 72x = 32[/tex]

  • [tex]8x = 32[/tex]

  • [tex]x = 32 \div 8[/tex]

  • [tex]x = 4[/tex]
