Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
In the third line of the solution on right side of the equal sign, middle term should be 8x instead of 4x.
The final value of x will be 6.
[tex] PQ^2 + QO^2 = PO^2 \\
x^2 + 8^2 = (4+x)^2 \\
x^2 + 64 = 16 + 8x + x^2 \\
64 = 16 + 8x \\
64 - 16 = 8x \\
48 = 8x \\
6 = x\\[/tex]
