Answer:

Option D RX=4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the right triangle RTS

The cosine of angle TRS is equal to

cos(TRS)=RT/RS

substitute

cos(TRS)=6/9 -----> equation A

In the right triangle RTX

The cosine of angle TRX is equal to

cos(TRX)=RX/RT

substitute

cos(TRX)=RX/6 -----> equation B

∠TRS=∠TRX -----> is the same angle

Match equation A and equation B

6/9=RX/6

RX=6*6/9=4 units
