Answer:

Option D. x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If the two triangles Δ ABC and ΔDEC are similar then there corresponding sides will be in the same ratio.

Now using this theorem in these triangles

[tex]\frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{BC}{EC}[/tex]

Now it has been given

AB = (4x - 1)

BC = 4

EC = 4

DE = x + 2

By putting these values in the formula

[tex]\frac{4x-1}{x+2}=\frac{4}{4}=1[/tex]

We cross multiply on both the sides

(4x - 1) = (x + 2)

4x - x = 1 + 2

3x = 3

x = 1

Option D. x = 1 is the answer.
