The formula to calculate the missing side of a triangle is the Pythagorean theorem:

c² = a² + b²

In your case, c will be the hypotenuse:

c^{2} =  8^{2} + 5^{2} 

c^{2} = 64 + 25
c^{2} = 89
c =  \sqrt{89}
c = 9,43 

The answer is 9mm.

Hope it helped!

Answer: 9 mm

Explanation:

a² + b² = c²
8² + 5² = c²
c² = 64 + 25
c² = 89
c= √89
c = 9 mm (nearest whole number)
