Explanation:

Correct Answer: D

The side-angle-side (SAS) postulate can be used to determine that the triangles are similar. Both triangles share the angle farthest to the right. In the smaller triangle, the upper edge has a length of 8, and in the larger triangle is has a length of 8+8=16. In the smaller triangle, the bottom edge has a length of 6, and in the larger triangle is has a length of 6+6=12. We can test for comparison.

The statement is true, so the triangles must be similar.

We can use this ratio to solve for the missing side length.
