Solution:

  • Here, in triangles UVW and UWX,
  1. Angle V = Angle X [given]
  2. Angle VWU = Angle XWU [given]
  3. UW = UW [common]
  • So, triangle UVW is congruent to triangle UWX.
  • By c.p.c.t., VU = XU
  • Given, VU = s+16, XU = 3s
  • Therefore, VU = XU

or, s + 16 = 3s

or, 16 = 3s - s

or, 2s = 16

or, s = 8

Answer:

The value of s is 8.
