An Apple iPad 10th gen and an Apple Pencil USB-C should pair: Apple Pencil compatibility - Apple Support

Here is how the pairing should work: Pair Apple Pencil with your iPad - Apple Support

In that last link, see “If your Apple Pencil won't pair with your iPad“

If the Pencil still will not pair, contact Apple Support.
