If two polygons are similar, their corresponding sides ratios will be equal to each other.
[tex]\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: \cfrac{8}{16} = \cfrac{2x - 20}{24} [/tex]
[tex]\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: \cfrac{1}{2} = \cfrac{2x - 20}{24} [/tex]
[tex]\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: 2x - 20 = \cfrac{24}{2} [/tex]
[tex]\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: 2x = 12 + 20[/tex]
[tex]\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: 2x = 32[/tex]
[tex]\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: x = 16[/tex]
