Trying to find the missing segment to the triangle in the attached image. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

24 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using concept of basic proportionality theorem,

according to this theorem, if a line is drawn parallel to one side of the triangle and intersect the other two sides then the two sides are divided in the same ratio.

Example:

let there be a triangle ABC

if DE is drawn parallel to BC such that D is a point on line AB and E is other point on AC, then

AD/DB = AE/EC (basic proportionality theorem)

Similarly in this problem

15/5 = ?/8

3= ?/8

? = 8*3 = 24

Thus. missing segment value is 24 unit.

answer: just subtact the units and then add the non negative : happy to
