I was given this problem from a high school geometry [STRIKE]textbook[/STRIKE] problem sheet, and this is all the information given:

The polygons are similar. Solve for x and y.

All I could find is that x=27. Is y unsolvable or is there something I've missed?

Apparently just that copy of the problem sheet was misprinted with that problem; the other sheets have the missing information...
