Sorry im new to this and was trying to figure out how to post a picture with it

ok, based off the picture,
we can conclude that the 2 triangles are congruent using the information, "the sum of all interior angles of triangles is equal to 180 degrees" and the ASA theorem.

since they're congruent triangles, that must mean that QU is equal to UV

now the length of QU can be defined as 5x+9, whereas the length of UV can be defined as 7x+1

since QU is equal to UV, we can conclude that 5x+9 = 7x+1

solve for x, then using x, determine the length of UV or QU since they're the same length
