solve for x​

Answer 1

x = 6.4

Explanation:

Δ NOP and Δ NLM are similar triangles ( by the AA postulate )

Then the ratios of corresponding sides are in proportion , that is

`(OP)/(LM)` =
`(NO)/(NL)` , substitute values

`(x)/(8)` =
`(5.6)/(7)` ( cross- multiply )

7x = 44.8 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 6.4
