Assuming that that triangle has equal lengthed-legs, we can calculate x using the pythagorean formula.
x = sqrt(2* 10^2) = 10 * sqrt(2).
The question doesn't state if it is an isosceles triangle or not, therefore I cannot validate this answer, but as there is no other info, we can only assume so.

Mb I cut this part out @heavy jungle

So now you can use the pythagorean theorem to solve for x.

#

Alternatively, you can use the concept of a 45-45-90 triangle (isosceles right triangle).

So wait is the answer 10?
