उत्तर १
Construction: Join AF intersecting CD at X.

In ΔABF, DX || AB
`"FD"/"DB"="FX"/"XA"` ...(1) (By Basic proportionality theorem)
In ΔAEF, XC || FE
`"FX"/"XA"="EC"/"CA"` ... (2) (By Basic proportionality theorem)
From (1) and (2), we get
`"FD"/"DB"="EC"/"CA"`
`4/8 = x/12`
x = 6
Now, AE = AC + CE
= 12 + 6
= 18
उत्तर २
line AB || line CD || line FE ...(given)
∴ `("BD")/("DF") = ("AC")/("CE")` ...(Property of three parallel lines and their transversals)
∴ `8/4 = 12/x`
∴ x = `(12 xx 4)/8`
∴ x = 6 units
Now, AE = AC + CE [A - C - E]
= 12 + x
= 12 + 6
= 18 units
∴ x = 6 units and AE = 18 units
