Answer:

x = 10

6x - 6 = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse of both triangles are 63 and 6x - 6; the second longest sides are 49 (greater than 35) and 42 (greater than 30).

So our proportion:

63/(6x-6) = 49/42

Cross multiply

63*42 = 49*(6x-6)

2646 = 294x-294

2940 = 294x

x = 10

Double-check:

63/(6*10 - 6) = 49/42

63/(60 - 6) = 49/42

63/54 = 49/42

7/6 = 7/6

6x - 6 = 6(10) - 6 = 60 - 6 = 54
