Answer:
![x=2√(6)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/llxuo2fyc1inxbttqwnhxvc3y3mem75o2i.png)
Explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem:
![a^2+b^2=c^2](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/96dopf217hvzc3zhswffnjr8l5f26vmjhb.png)
a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse. Insert the values:
![√(10)^2+√(14)^2=x^2](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/2mx0bd9nwdablx6i27b275hp1eafyrmasb.png)
Simplify exponents using the rule
