Answer 2

Answer:

8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given- Base= 6cm

Hypotenuse= 10cm

To Find- Third side, i.e, Perpendicular

Solution- In a right angled triangle, we know that-

${h}^{2} = {b}^{2} + {p}^{2}$

[Pythagoras Theorem]

${10cm}^{2} = {6cm}^{2} + {p}^{2}$

$100 = 36 + {p}^{2}$

$\sqrt{100 - 36} = p$

$\sqrt{64} = p$

Therefore, p = 8cm
