Answer:

The required value of x is 5 units to show that RQP ≅ PSR by SSS.

Explanation:

We have been given that

RQP ≅ PSR by SAS

According to this, two triangles are congruent if the three sides of a triangle are equal to the corresponding sides of the other triangle.

As per the given figure,

⇒ QR = PS

⇒ 2x+3 = 4x-7

⇒ 4x - 2x = 7 + 3

⇒ 2x = 10

⇒ x = 10/2

⇒ x = 5

Therefore, the required value of x is 5 units.
