hello

to solve this qiestion, we can either use pythagorean theorem or trigonometric ratio since it's a right angled triangle

but to save time, we can use pythagorean theorem


\begin{gathered} 12^2=x^2+(6\sqrt[]{3})^2 \\ 144=x^2+108 \\ \end{gathered}

collect like terms


\begin{gathered} x^2=144-108 \\ x^2=36 \end{gathered}

take the square root of both sides


\begin{gathered} x^2=36 \\ x=\sqrt[]{36} \\ x=6 \end{gathered}

from the calculations above, the value of x is equal to 6
