Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Because we know that 1 side is 12, we can multiply it by 2 to find part of the perimeter, which is 24. Now we know that the other 2 sides add up to 12. That means that they each measure 6, so x = 3. The real question is why it shows that 6 is longer than 12!
