since the triangles are similar, the sides are proportional. 48/6 = 8. this means that each of the sides on the green triangle is 1/8 of the yellow one. so, 56/8 = 7.
as the triangles are similar, the proportion of the length of the sides are the same. hence as the length of the sides in the green triangle is 8 times less than that of the yellow triangle, x would be 8 times less than the corresponding side in the yellow triangle. 56/8 =7 hence the answer is 7. (a)
