Answer to Problem 2ST2

The value of $x=7\text{units}\text{.}$

Explanation of Solution

Given information :

Givenfigure

  

Since opposite to congruent angles are congruent sides.

Thus, $5x-11=3x+3$ .

  $\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow 5x-3x=3+11\\ \Rightarrow 2x=14\\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{14}{2}\\ \therefore x=7\end{array}$

Hence, the value of $x=7\text{units}\text{.}$
