Answer:

x =
√(6)

Explanation:

Since the given triangle is equilateral the all 3 sides would be:


√(6) +√(6) or
√(12). Now we know that the base of the right triangle is
√(6) and the hypotenuse is
√(12). Therefore we can say;

A² + B² = C²

(
√(6))² + x² = (
√(12)

6 + x² = 12

x² = 12 - 6

x² = 6

x =
√(6)

Therefore; x =
√(6) is the length of x, in simplest radical form.
