Answer:

The value of x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle Bisector Theorem

An angle bisector of a triangle would cut the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle.

Thus,

[tex]\frac{x}{15}=\:\frac{12}{20}[/tex]

Cross Multiply the expression

[tex]\:20\times x=12\times 15[/tex]

Divide both sides by 20

[tex]\frac{20x }{20}=\frac{180}{20}[/tex]

[tex]x=9[/tex]

Therefore, the value of x = 9
