Figure 2 is a crosswind component chart. Your aircraft manual probably has one, too. Drop straight down from that to the scale on the bottom to determine the crosswind component of 10 knots and straight across to the vertical axis to determine the headwind component, which in this example is about 17.5 knots. Federal Aviation Regulations require that all airplanes certificated after 1962 have safe ground handling characteristics with a direct crosswind component of 0.2 Vso. If your airplane stalls at 50 knots in the landing configuration, it must have a demonstrated crosswind component of at least 10 knots.
Many airplanes do better than the minimum.
The Cessna 172R Skyhawk, for example, lists a demonstrated crosswind component of 15 knots. If you are not comfortable in crosswinds, I don't suggest that you wait for a day of maximum winds. Start slowly and work up to the maximum. Just be ready to justify your position. Lots of practice will help with that.
