The missing length in the triangle is 6 units

Note that:

The two triangles are symmetrical

Let the missing words be x

For two symmetrical shapes, the ratios of the corresponding lengths are equal

[tex]\frac{8}{4} =\frac{8+x}{7} \\\\2=\frac{8+x}{7}[/tex]

Cross multiply

2(7)  =  8  +  x

14   =   8  +  x

Subtract 8 from both sides

14 - 8  =  8  +  x  -  8

x   =  6
