To find the answer we have to find what<em> 10</em> and <em>6 is squared.</em><em>10 x 10 = 100</em>.
<em>6 x 6 = 36. </em>Now since we are trying to find the length of the other leg, we will <em>subtract 100 from 36</em> and we get <em>64</em>. Then for the last step, we will figure out what number<em> squared equals 64.</em> Because 8 x 8 = 64, <em>8 is our answer.</em>
