Question

What is the length of the right triangle below in inches?​

Answer 1

Answer:

6in

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the pythagerous thereom,

10^2 = 8^2 + b^2

b^2 = 10^2-8^2

b^2 = 100-64

b^2 = 36

b = 6

Answer 2

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

?^2 + 8^2 = 10^2

?^2 +64 = 100

?^2 = 100-64

?^2 = 36

Take the square root of each side

? = sqrt(36)

?= 6
