Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Use the parts of the inscribed triangle with the parts of the large triangle. Set up a proportion.

Proportion

6/(x + 7) = 8 / ( (x+7) + (x + 1)  )     Simplify the right

Solution

6/(x + 7) = 8 / (2x + 8)                  Cross Multiply

6(2x + 8) = 8 (x + 7)                      Remove the brackets

12x + 48 = 8x + 56                       Subtract 8x from both sides

12x - 8x + 48 = 56                        Simplify

4x + 48  = 56                               Subtract 48 from both sides

4x = 56 - 48

4x = 8                                           Divide by 4

4x/4 = 8/4

x = 2
