Actually, the value of x is not 11.
Since the polygons are similar, we can set up a proportion between corresponding sides:
(2x-4)/6 = 9/3
Now we can simplify and solve for x:
2(x-2)/6 = 3
2(x-2) = 18
x-2 = 9
x = 11
Therefore, the value of x is actually 11. Well done!
FIND THE VALUE OF X. THE POLYGONS ARE SIMILAR, BUT NOT DRAWN TO SCALE
FIRST POLYGON:
2x-4
9
SECOND POLYGON:
6
3
you should get x=11
