Answer:

The missing side is X=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar to eachother, they will have the same ratio.

One way to solve is dividing 8 by 2. Since 12 divided by 2 is 6,

we can expect 8 divided by 2 to be the missing side we are looking for.

Hope that helps!

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are in proportion, that is

[tex]\frac{x}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{12}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

12x = 48 ( divide both sides by 12 )

x = 4
