Answer:

x = 9

Explanation:

Ratios!! Since both triangles are in the same triangle, they are proportinate in size. from there, we can match the sides of the small triange to the sides of the large.


(4)/(10) = (6)/(6 + x)

Then, you can cross multiply and solve the equation algebraicly for x.

4(6+x) = 60

24+4x = 60

4x = 36

x = 9
