Well, this is a Pythagorean theorem problem. A^2 + B^2 = C^2, where C^2 is equal to the hypotenuse. 8 squared equals 64, so c^2 = 64 cm. The other leg can be represented by A^2, which is 36 cm. 36 + ? = 64. 64 - 36 = 28, so B^2 equals 28. Now, to find the measurement of the other leg, we need the square root of 28. The square root of 28 is 5.3 cm.
