Answer:

The value of x is 15 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given triangle RSQ and ΔRST it is given that

∠RTS ≅ ∠SRQ ≅ 90°

∠RSQ is common in two triangles Δ RSQ and Δ RST.

Therefore two angles are equal so both the triangles are common.

From this property we opposite sides of the corresponding angles will be in the same ratio.

SR/SQ = ST/SR

x/(9 + 16) = 9/x

By cross multiplication on each side of the equation

x² = 25×9 = 225

x = √225 = 15

Therefore measurement of x is 15 units.
