Step-by-step explanation:
If a,b,c are the sides of a right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse (the longest side), then the Pythagorean theorem states that:
mmmmmmmmm¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∣∣a2+b2=c2∣∣−−−−−−−−−−−−
So here, a=8,b=6.
∴c2=82+62
=64+36
=100
c=√100
=±10
Since this is a length, we cannot take the negative side, as that'll make no sense! So, we only take the positive root, and the final answer is:
c=10
