Answer:

x=13.3

Step-by-step explanation:

since they are similar their corresponding sides will be similar

flipping the triangle to match each other you'll see 16 and x correspond.

So you set an equation of the corresponding sides equaling each other since they are similar

(16/6)=(x/5)       cross multiply

6x=80                Find x

(6x)/6=80/6

x=13.3
