The value of x is 4.

Solution:

The reference image for the geometric mean of the right triangle is given below.

b = x, c = 6 and d = 2

By the property of similar right triangle:


{b}^(2)={d} \cdot({c}+{d})


{x}^(2)={2} \cdot({6}+{2})


{x}^(2)={2} \cdot(8)


{x}^(2)=16

Taking square root on both side of the equation.

x = 4

Hence the value of x is 4.
