Answer:

To solve this problem you would need the Pythagorean Theorem .


a^(2) + b^(2) = c^(2)

10 would be
b^(2). So,
a^(2) +10^(2) = c^(2).


a^(2) + 100 = c^(2)

Pick a number that is larger than 10, which would be the x or the (a), then add 2 to that number, which would be the c or the (x+2) . Then try to plug it in, if it doesn't work try other numbers.

Well it really depends what u r solving for. So for perimeter u could add both X’s so 2x, and then add 10+2 which is 12. So it would be 2x+12. Not 100% right but I tried hope this helps and good luck!
