Answer:


10 = x

Explanation:

This is what is called the Midsegment Theorem, which states that the relation of a triangle's midpunkt is parallel to the triangle's third side, and the mid-segment length is half the third side length, so you would take half of
4x + 20 and set that expression equal to the midsegment:

2x + 10 = 3x

-2x - 2x

____________


10 = x

You then plug this back into both expressions above to get the double-segment of 60 and the mid-segment of 30. We can tell this is correct because 30 and 60 are relatively proportional to each other.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
