Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters of the triangle having bisected angle are;

The length of the opposite and adjacent side of one of the halves of the bisected angle = 6 and 14 respectively

The length of the opposite and adjacent side of the other half of the bisected angle = (3·x - 12) and 21 respectively

By the angle bisector theorem, we have;

[tex]\dfrac{14}{6} = \dfrac{21}{3\cdot x - 12}[/tex]

Simplifying, we get;

[tex]\dfrac{14}{6} = \dfrac{2 \times 7}{2 \times 3} = \dfrac{7}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{21}{3\cdot x - 12} = \dfrac{3 \times 7}{3 \times (x - 4)} = \dfrac{7}{x - 4}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{7}{3} = \dfrac{7}{ x - 4}[/tex]

7 × (x - 4) = 3 × 7

∴ x - 4 = 3

x = 3 + 4 = 7

x = 7.
