Is it possible to find the value of $x$? I feel like the information is not enough to find it.

I have found EF, which is 19.8 cm (if this is helpful)

Thanks

You can't find $x$ from the information given.

Thank you very much PeroK

If you made a "3,4, 5" right triangle with 5x as the hypotenuse, you could get closer to a solution.

Sorry I don't understand. I think what you suggest is related to ratio, not to actual length, or am I mistaken?

Thanks

It seems to me that you could make up any value for $x$, e.g. 3, and then find that some other value, e.g. 5, would work just as well.
