(2x + 6)/(x + 6) = (10)/(8) = (5)/(4) \\ 8x + 24 = 5x + 30 \\ 3x = 6 > > > x = 2

The length of segment WR is determined as 8.

The length of segment RT is determined as 10.

How to calculate the measure of line WR and RT?

The measure of line WR is calculated by applying the following formula as shown below for similar triangles.

RT / VT = WR / SW

The given parameters include;

RT = 2x + 6

VT = 10

WR = x + 6

SW = 8

(2x + 6) / 10 = ( x + 6 )/8

8 (2x + 6) = 10 (x + 6)

16x + 48 = 10x + 60

16x - 10x = 60 - 48

6x = 12

x = 12 / 6

x = 2

The length of WR = x + 6

WR = 2 + 6

WR = 8

The length of RT = 2x + 6

RT = 2(2) + 6

RT = 10
