12/100= 0.12
0.12* 10 = 1.2
12 - 1.2 = 10.8

1.2*6 = 7.2

10.8 + 7.2 = 18

You need the formula for geometric mean for right triangles as it applies to the altitude. For us, that formula will be $\frac{BD}{AD}=\frac{CD}{BD}$ where BD is your altitude. The formula then, filled in accordingly, would be $\frac{10}{x}=\frac{4x}{10}$ . We cross multiply to get that $4x^2=100$ . Divide both sides by 4 to get $x^2=25$ , so x = 5. Choice C is the one you want.
